The 15mph speed limit is appropriate for the area he is referring to, which is in response to my post, where I specified. On one side of Paradise is the tennis court, the postal center, the parking lots for the bacci and shuffleboard courts, and the corner of a road where traffic coming from left and right don't have a stop sign.

On the other side of the road is the a sand trap at the executive golf course, the fire department, the rec center, their parking lots, a church, and the other corner of the road where traffic coming from left and right don't have a stop sign.

It is a VERY busy section of road, with one lane in each direction, no bicycle or mmp lane, and no sidewalks for pedestrians.

The rest of the area has a 25mph speed limit. But you're supposed to slow down in this singular 1.5-block section of road.

While I respect your opinion, we have to agree to disagree. I know exactly the location you are referring to, and anyone with even minimal driving skills can safely operate a cart at 20 mph (at least that's my opinion )
