Between Lady Lake, Fruitland Park, Wildwood and Leesburg officers I see them all the time, what I don’t see is any of then patrolling The Villages[/QUOTE]
- Are the number of people speeding excessively (>10mph) as high in the Villages as on 441? Is the Villages the best place to spend patrol time if you want to make arrests?
- Are the speeders in the Villages likely to cause as much harm and damage as those on 441? Wrecking at 35mph when you can't handle the roundabout is not going to be as serious as crashing into traffic at 65mph on 441.
- I have seen traffic stops on Buena Vista, Morse, and Hillsborough. Not as many as on 441 but this area does get patrolled occasionally.

But you forget, according to some on this thread, those Villagers driving 35.1 are CRIMINALS. Those driving golf carts at 20.1 are CRIMINALS. I suppose those who park over the line are CRIMINALS. The guillotine awaits.....
How about this for semantic nomenclature:
The term is not traffic crimes, it is traffic INFRACTIONS-----maybe we could designate those perpetrators as "infractors"
Likewise, the term is not parking crimes, but parking VIOLATIONS----we could call those people "violators", although that could have a much different connotation.
