Tailgaters
 
What is with some of you tailgaters riding the rear of golf carts here in the villages? Is your depth perception that bad or are you deliberately trying to cause an accident. I had to pull aside this morning on paige place at Hacienda rec center to avoid being hit from behind.

I don't like cigars either. I'll have to try beans, boiled eggs, and beer before every cart ride!

I bet they were cussin you out for going only 15 mph..

....OH WAIT... the speed limit on paige pl at Hacienda Rec is only 10 mph.....

The tailgaters must not be able to read the speed limit sign...
...due to their poor depth perception.

So frustrating when in a car as well. I sometimes just slow down or suddenly apply the breaks hoping they’ll run into me. ( dang that darting squirrel) But wait this is about Florida where every other person is packin’ a gun. Not a wise move in TV.

I understand your concern but that is one thing I will not do and the way I have always felt is the closer you get the slower I go. If you are in a hurry then leave earlier.

Maybe they had to go. In a hurry

Pulling aside was the responsible thing to do. If you want to drive at a turtle’s pace you should understand that a lot of other people don’t want to go at your speed. Move over and wave them by. It’s simple

If I drive the speed limit here there will always be someone riding my tail.
