Now someone tell me how that doesn't cause problems when that many cars are neck to neck.

Not a one-time occurrence. I see it 2 out of 3 days I work per week.
Just because the speed LIMIT is 30MPH doesn't mean you need to go 30MPH. Most of us are retired here and like to take our time and smell the roses. I must disagree with you though. When I'm on a two lane road going exactly the speed limit (I always use cruise control), I get passed on the right by almost everyone. I have to admit, it brings me some joy to see some maniac behind me trying desperately to pass. I used to be one of those maniacs but I finally realized how wrong that was in a retirement community as beautiful as this one. Ever notice the flowers in the round-a-bouts? Slow down you move too fast, got to make the morning last (as the song says). Leave a little early to compensate for slow drivers.
