Stay alert and I'm waiting for some **** **** someday to stop as soon as he gets through the gate, but of course the sensors will sense that he is there and not lower the gate. One could question the legality of having these gates on a public road, but that's another topic. For those of you who don't have good reactions, I definitely don't recommend this activity otherwise do your bit to save the planet.

You tailgate & run through the gate & you think that the person you are tailgating would be an **** **** for stopping. Amazing, incredible. I hope this was a facetious post. The gate arm is there to
stop, or
slow the flow of traffic for the safety of walkers, golf carts, & bikes who all use the MMPs & the roadways in The Villages. If you are so concerned with pollution, I suggest giving up your car & becoming a walker yourself would yield the best results for all.
