Maybe if we screw this country up enough they'll take it back

Sometimes the bright sun plays a part in seeing how close you are to the gate

BTW, it was at 11 pm and they weren't drunk. It's a common misconception by the in bed by 9 crowd that anyone who stays up later than them is drunk.

So they just went in and paid for the damages...............right?

A question for the more legally informed than I.

Seeing as these are county owned roads, Does an entity (developer, CDD or anyone else) have a legal right to A. Place a blockage on a county owned road and B. Have a legal recourse to sue for any damages to the blockage?

Ok.......the gate at the entrance to St. James was knocked down again sometimes this afternoon (1-21-16). I approached it about 11am, swiped the card, the gate comes up, I start through it and two guys in a cart that was sitting in the cross-space looked right at me and proceeded to pull right out in front of me. I locked the brakes and missed t-boning them by about a foot.

Are some people just born stupid (those that knock down gates/those that attempt to cause/cause accidents) or do they acquire that trait as soon as they enter the bubble?

Maybe not but there high percentage chance they are if they can't see gate with reflectors on it

What would the world be like without stupidIMO that's the main reason there are gates to stop traffic and give time for carts to cross. But, cart drivers have to wait till car clears the gate exit. I am very watchful for all carts! I think some don't realize they don't have the right way all the time? Another thing, I never criticize gas golf carts for not completely stopping at stop signs when I am not inline yet, due to the cart will die and have to be restarted and the centrifugal clutch engaged to get it moving again. But, that's me

I thought your post was clever.

Is the other online news correct when stating that Community Watch says about 2,400 gate arms are knocked down every year at $200 a pop to repair?

I also hate to prematurely wear out my clutch.

You break it, you bought it. Seems like a simple solution.
