Crazy Driver
 
My wife and I were heading north on Morse Blvd. near Hacienda golf course this morning. We were traveling about 30 MPH when all of a sudden a gray compact passed us on the left going over a double line and traveling in the southbound lanes. He passed another car on the left and then got into the northbound lane. He then preceded to pass cars by driving in the golf cart lane a couple of times and then when he got past the last car speeded up and was going as best as I could tell around 50 MPH. It was really crazy. I have never seen anything like that here (nor anywhere else for that matter). I didn't see any emergency lights. Will wonders never cease.

Blue Eagle, where in West Virginia did you live? I grew up in Monongah, near Fairmont, and am a WVU graduate. We'll be renting in The Villages Jan.-March 2015 on Rainbow Drive off No. 5 green of Silver Lake Country Club.

Bad drivers exist everywhere! The Villages is not immune.

The saying was " Buyer beware" in TV it should be "Drivers beware!" I noticed a lot more erratic drivers in the last month....hmmm ( I did not say it!)

Being from the Northeast and driving extensively in a couple of the New England states, it's refreshing that nearly all the drivers here in TV are courteous and polite.
