They didn't do their homework. They had some pre conceived ideas about golf carts and I bet they had them too about older people. That is why the woman who had sex on the square caused such a media frenzy.


We seniors are very much still alive and pretty darn happy, and I think that came across in this piece.

There many golf cart safty videos on youtube. click here
There is one that's a compilation of accidents. I couldn't watch is for more than 10 seconds. It's that upsetting. I think an awareness campaign would be the most effective plan.

Like those shop videos in high school? Those sometimes got really gross. They do make these sometimes so over-the-top that they become more comedic than effective like some of the anti- tobacco ads I have seen of late from the State of Florida.

I liked this piece more than a lot of the other national news on the Villages.

The youtube that's hard to watch is the one that has recordings of accidents. They are not staged.
