So many times on different posts I read people writing how beautiful The Villages is, how well kept everything is. Why would anyone want to whiz by and miss it all. The 15 MPH is on side streets where people live and walk and bike. How far would anyone have to drive on a side street? I often wonder to myself, what's the hurry, we are over 55, most of us are retired. relax, lean back and enjoy this fantastic place. Slow down and wave to people that you don't even know. Go fast if you want to but, I will leave early when I am going and drive the speed limit coming back. The only time I go over the speed limit is when we take a trip. For some reason when we are coming home to The Villages, I suffer from lead foot. Just returned from Fort Myers. Please don't tell anyone but, my GPS said that I was doing on average about 80 MPH, as soon as I turned into The Villages almost every car passed me. HMMM I wonder why?????
