I agree that it's not good to be walking in the rotaries facing either way! But it is a retirement community with an aging population. I think that we have to remember that there are some Village residents who suffer from dementia. Not everyone is going to be obeying traffic rules. Many residents are elderly and get muddled easily. Well, I guess we all get muddled sometimes!
