Danger! Danger!
 
My husband was coming home from Sweetbay earlier today. Traveling north in the golf cart lane over LSL bridge he met......a ford fairlane. OMG! Fortunately he was on the area where he could pull off on the grass. I can't imagine how they got on that path. Last week one of our neighbors met an automobile coming off the path that goes past Mission Oaks Park.

We are going into the time of the year when we have new people driving here. Please everyone. PLEASE drive defensively.

I have seen this happen two other times myself.

Yes, the car had just come over the bridge. Don't ask me how that happened, but it did. My husband was approaching the bridge right about where sunset park is.

Good grief! How did it fit on there? There's barely enough room for 2 golf carts.

A person who is no longer competent to drive should have his/her driver's license taken away. Driving is a privilege, not a right.

I remember having to convince my mother to stop driving. Finally I asked her how she would feel if she hit a child. That did it! She gave up her license.

Lazy me, I read GG's comment and usurped it to imagination, being new for the TV winter. Is driving along the amazing landscape in tV like being exponentially sprung onto the horizon, as the perpetual tide of humans roll along choosing this or that diversion from the divine, or if you could ask a different question, what is the meaning?
