Um....once a year or so ago we had our grandson visiting who had an Asthma attack in the middle of the night so we were out driving to The Villages hospital about two or three in the morning. We were the ONLY person on the roads.
Most of us retire early here and to say there isn't much traffic in the dead of night is an understatement.
It may be that " moving patrols" would have stopped and ticketed them...but I am sadly thinking it wouldn't have stopped the behavior that led to this tragic accident.
