The problem (to Patzy) with police pulling over speeders: they'd be pulling them over to the exact spot where golf carts can (barely) legally drive. They're not (legally) allowed to drive on Morse, except in the designated lined area in each direction between just past the gate at 466 to just before the roundabout at Paige Place.

If a police car has a car pulled over onto the side of the road, they'll both be blocking golf cart traffic. That forces golf carts (and bicyclers and pedestrians, who are also allowed on that mini-lane) to merge into the 30mph road. It's not a big deal if they're expecting to do that when they're turning left onto a side street or onto the MMP near the gate. It's another matter entirely when it's sudden, when there's already a lot of traffic on the road.
