Default VIDEO - What the roundabouts will look like in 20 years

Sneak preview of what the roundabouts in The Villages will look like in twenty years. Maybe we'll have flying cars by then?

Impossible. I don't see a single golf cart going the wrong way around the circle!

George Jetson told me we would all have flying cars by then. (If you google him, his birthday is 8/27/2022)

Have seen this in China but pedestrians have to cross the street as there are no underground crossings.

Who's kidding who? They already look like that! A lot more fender benders here though, and don't forget the poor injured light posts. The people in the video at least can see and hear! I think maybe Morgan & Morgan might have had their first Law office in The Villages.

Unlighted tunnels in TV are walk, breath (fumes) at your own risk.

I see that is actually Paris right now. It is at the Arc de Triomphe.

I would never walk through the tunnels in TV. You have a less of a chance getting hit by a car crossing the street than a golf cart in a dark tunnel.

I was not saying that I would recommend doing that. Oh Hell no, but have seen others attempt it. That is why I put at the beginning of my tongue in check response to this post " Originally Posted by Stu from NYC View Post
