What’s the rush? Leave a little earlier and maybe save someone’s life, such as your own.
The tailgaters and speed demons who blow by when people are already doing 70+ now seem to have infected The Villages.

It’s a residential area with housing on each side of road as opposed to the 45 mph areas with green areas to each side, and 55 mph areas with woods and farms on each side of the road.

Lots of speeding in the Villages of late. It seems that a majority of cars and golf carts are going ten or more miles per hour over it. I am stuck in my governor controlled golf cart going 19.8 or lower. And I often have a train of impatient golf cart drivers behind me.

Traffic Citations in Lady Lake
 

Not sure were all these tickets and citations were issued but it certainly was not on Hwy 441 in Lady Lake. That highway is a racetrack and I seldom see a patrol car on that roadway let alone stopping someone for speeding. Also, why are they issuing warnings instead of citations? Kind of a waste of time isn't it.

By that reasoning, let's make every road, boulevard, 466A and 466 15 mph. After all, "we're retired, what's the rush"?

There are no "houses on either side of the road" on BV, Morse south of 466, El Camino Real and Meggison. There are no intersections. You must slow down for RBs. And 466 and 466A are "green on either side"??? On what planet???? 466A, 466 have significant commercial development with intersections and cars exiting parking lots, yet the speed limit is 45. I wonder what community the person who posted that lives in.

They could pay the entire dept's salary for a month by sitting on 466 and ticketing all those going 30 in a 45. But be sure and ticket the left lane losers first!

Why the token smoke screen
 

Why just do the speed enforcement for looks? Why not sustain traffic enforcement till traffic slows down?

I do not see that many peoples going under the speed limit unless they are having car or truck problems.

No problem, you pay for it.

Yeah, we do.

But here's an idea...I'll bet there are quite a few LEOs living in TV. Maybe some of them might be interested in getting back into the game as contracted (not employed) traffic cops. Their entire job would be to patrol TV for speeders, left-lane lolligaggers, stop light/sign runners, etc. etc. But instead of paying them a wage, they get a portion of all the fines levied against the people they catch breaking the traffic laws.

Joe Taxpayer doesn't get stuck with the bill for anything, we get better traffic control and the regular officers get freed up for other police work. Win-win.

They really should do more of that enforcement. And it would be more important in the winter with more traffic than in the summer

Ever try riding a bicycle from Buena Vista to Lowes or Publix on 466A ? Not for the faint of heart, trust me.

Why would anyone want to?????

Amazing how these people who want the cops to give out tickets aren't so enthused after they get stopped. The fact is, the speed limits here in The Villages are too low. They may be low to hold people to drive within a more reasonable speed. But if that's the case, don't hold people to the letter of the law.
