I saw that news on ABC. It was not targeting The Villages (for a change)
Correction: They put an extended version on this morning's news, with multiple clips from The Villages and an interview with a Sumter Co. deputy. They showed a trashed cart on Morse near De La Vista entrance----
except----the cart was in the car lane. In typical media style, they dug up a sob story from a cart accident victim---
in January 2020.
The main thrust of the segment was a push for mandatory seatbelts in golf carts----which is actually a pretty good idea. But unfortunately, the muckraking style of the media will probably lead to unforeseen consequences. At least the "more police, more tickets, more enforcement" crowd will be happy, because I'm pretty sure that will be in our future after this news story. So better be sure you never drive your cart at 20.1 mph----they might execute on the spot ala Judge Dread.
PS: I'm STILL waiting to see all those golf carts going 40 mph like some on TOTV have claimed
