Our experience is vastly different than yours. We frequently travel from 44 up 301 to the 466 area, and beyond. I honestly think that we see at least 1 police car every trip- we often see as many as 3-4. These are Wildwood, Sumter Sheriffs, and occasionally State Police. We don't travel the larger highways so I have no idea about those.

We have to travel periodically to Tampa, and have been doing this for over five years. Yesterday was only the second time we had seen a police car on the roadway. He was parked between the roadways, as cars sped by.
We've never seen one patrolling any of the roads surrounding The Villages or in the The Villages. They're certainly needed here.
Want to stop bad drivers? Get the police on the roadways doing their job.
