I agree. I pointed out the jacking up of the speed of golf carts and how dangerous it is. Also, there is the fact that the residents in the carts going 20 MPH are ENTITLED to POLICE PROTECTION from those golf carts set up to SPEED. I got derided by various posters for saying that I have seen golf carts go by my house at 40 MPH. Yet I remember reading a post in TOTV several years ago by a cart owner that bragged that he had his golf cart "souped up" and capable of 60 MPH.
.......All these fools in carts going over 20 MPH sometimes don't bother to slow down for curves and I can imagine that 2 of their wheels are LIFTING. And you add high levels of alcohol to the mix of curves and high speeds and the POLICE have FAILED in their duty to protect retired people in The Villages. I am sure that retired people die ever year because of these speed altered GOLF CARTS.
