So, 2 left turn accidents off Morse. I'd love to see a Morse North recreation trail with tunnels and all, but I suppose that is unlikely. Not sure what we can do to enforce the speed limit. Speed bumps maybe?

I don't know what the norm is. It is not a golf cart lane. It is a multi modal lane. In my book pedestrians have the right of way. I do not expect them to jump up on the curb when I approach in my golf cart. I move into the car lane, if safe, or slow down or even stop. Many pedestrians here have difficulty walking and are unable to leap aside at the approach of every golf cart. BTW, the law says we must give bicycles three feet. I think we can grant pedestrians the same. |

I agree with Another Linda. Morse is SO busy. It is dangerous for cyclists, walkers and carts. I would love to see a separate multi-use trail.

They just upgraded Morse Blvd a year or two ago. But, I am still nervous driving a cart on Morse Blvd. I dont like to
drive my golf cart on a road that is mainly traveled by cars driving at, what I consider a high rate of speed, when I am on the side of the road. I really dont trust cars driving so close so the "alleged" cart paths. I try to drive on the cart paths only. Maybe that is why I dont play the golf courses north of 466 that much. Its dangerous out there on the roads in a cart, in my opinion. Be that Morse Blvd., St. Charles, or Odell. I really think more dedicated cart paths are necessary. But, I guess it is too late for dedicated cart paths on the roads I have mentioned. |

If you think about it....the percentage of folks in T.V. is possibly high in the fact that there are those who take medications for various issues. Then add to that...eye-sight not being that of a 20 year old, anymore. Disregard the being active put that aside....and the healthy aspect that's portrayed in all the "games" folks are playing. Look in the Sun and see ALL the ads for health-care of various kinds and ask yourself why they're there. I'd hate to know whose driving any kind of vehicle and using medications. Look at your pill bottles...most will say "don't operate a motor vehicle, use alcohol etc. while taking this" Could it be that there are folks who are kidding themselves and going about "Life" 'under the influence'. Add to this age, slower reflexes and more. I heard a story once about a guy who joined a 4-some and told the other folks they'd have to tell him where the ball went because he was legally blind. After the round he was observed to get in his car and drive away (true story!!!).

Well I always think of myself as typical. I take blood pressure medication and Prilosec and Boniva once a month. None of those have anything on them about driving a motor vehicle. I think that Dewars, Jim Beam and Johnny Walkers may be a little more to blame....and bad driving habits brought here from other parts of the country. Some people from large cities have always used public transit and some have rarely if ever driven and then they come here and drive golf carts. As to Morse Blvd and separate paths, as the development has grown, the developers have improved many issues, including separate from the road cart paths on many streets where you drive over 20 mph. No matter if all the paths were separate, and all the people were not drinking or taking medication that altered their judgement, and all of them could see well. Bad judgement and foolishness would still come in to play. Drive as if everyone else is an idiot and don't drive like one yourself.
