Default Golf cart & Auto Drivers

We have lived in TV for 5yrs. and have never seen the level of bad
and dangerous driving that is taking place this winter.

In the last couple of months we have seen, twice golf carts coming off
the bridge southbound that instead of making the right to LSL
go straight around the white pole that says "no carts"and bounce over the
landscape rocks to try to get to Sweet Bay.

Every day numerous cars going all the way around the roundabouts
in the right hand lane. People please go to the Villages office on
Wedgewood Dr. they have a great pamphlet put out by the local police
that explains the correct way to drive the roundabouts

Drivers stopping to allow golf carts to cross. Golf carts have the stop signs
you may think you are being courteous but you are breaking the law plus
giving golf cart drivers the impression that they have the right of way when
they don't.

Twice cars driving on the golf cart paths. Today there was a women in
a maroon car driving north towards the bridge on Morse Blvd. She had been
stopped by 2 golf carts. She also must have driven around the white pole
and some shrubbery to get where she was.

TV needs to do a better job of educating "birds" "renters" & new residents
on driving around here or someone is going to be killed.
