Default Taking the car not the cart

Funny you should mention this. Just last night I told my husband that I was afraid to drive on busy roads like Morse Blvd in a cart. I'll probably only go places where the cart path is separate from the roads, which I expect will limit where I can go. I will drive my car to other places. This brings me to this....I think it's pretty sad that seeing that we will live in such a beautiful place, with such a unique way to get around, that we can't take advantage of it. I saw some near misses this past week while driving around. Between the cars, carts, people, bikes and what ever else, it was a challenge (to say the least) to get from point A to point B. I would think that this cart idea should have been planned out a lot differently. Cart paths off the roadside should be the only way carts can travel, not in a lane along side the main road, like a bike path. I saw a cart pull out into the busy road just to pass a cart ahead of them. That caused multiple cars to swerve and thus having to avoid a possible accident. Things just don't seem right to me for this well planned community. But, I do LOVE TV!!!
