There were two carts actually---the front one was being reckless, no doubt about it and had their lights on. The 2nd one was equally reckless, if not more so as their lights were off! They were laughing and yelling after it happened. It happened so quickly.....but the thought of what might have happened was frightening!! IF these were grandkids visiting...BIG SIGH!!! Also...think they had gas-carts as they were loud and seemed to be going quite fast!!!
I have also been very close to being hit head on by a couple teenagers on the rec. path on El Camino Real. I have no objection to them driving,... except when they're on my side of the path coming from the other direction!

Please continue to remind your visiting children and grandchildren to be safe out there. The Villages is fun but lets not have the party on the golf carts while they're in motion,....please.
