One law that is constantly broken in the Villages and surrounding areas is the handicapped parking rule.

Villagers who have handicapped placards for their cars constantly use the handicapped parking spaces in and around the Villages. The law is that a vehicle must be ROAD WORTHY to be eligible for handicapped parking. The fact that the driver has a handicapped placard does NOT entitle them to park their golf cart in a handicap space. The only vehicles other than cars, etc. are the golf carts like GEM cars that can be driven on the roads and have a state vehicle license.

I for one am tired of these golf cart drivers assuming that they can park in handicapped spaces. I just wish the sheriff's department would ticket these vehicles.

Yes, I do drive a car and am entitled to handicapped parking due to severe back and leg issues and get tired of looking for a parking space near the store only to see golf carts in handicapped spaces! :edit:
