Inquiring minds want to know.  |
Just with their presence, makes a difference. Never know whats out there, with gates readily available to go through, without too much of a challenge!! I like the idea of them riding around. They are trained to spot situations, that we as residents, don't see. They do a great job. Maybe sometimes, don't like how fast they ride through neighborhood!! I remember a few years back, they had these burgulers in our neighborhoods, who had one person (lady) walking through neighborhood with cell phone in hand, and would call the driver when she noticed someone leaving their home, so they could pull up to home like they were workers, and break into home. (They were caught) So really good to have Village Watch
