Wife and I crossed the bridge a short time ago (near 1PM). We just missed getting hit by a smaller SUV, possibly a Mazda or Subaru, moving at a fairly good clip on the downside of the bridge. We were heading up towards Brownwood. He may have needed to get his strawberries home?

Are there posted signs that say GOLF CARTS ONLY?

Wow what a day - motorcycles and SUV's on bridges and cart paths.

well besides the 3 people who post on here- who else should be watching for this stuff?

I noticed an un-tagged vespa yesterday on the MMP- who is to stop them?

I won’t reiterate all the times I have seen cars on the rec trails but twice in the last month while going west on Colony blvd approaching Colony cottage rec ctr I have prevented a car from turning left onto the rec trail that leads to the 466-a tunnel. There is a turning lane there (for carts or bikes) and the car goes into that lane with turn signal on. I laid down on the horn and both times the drivers realized their error and I let them in front of me to continue going west. I have seen a full sized sedan coming out of that tunnel heading north.

Well, maybe, maybe, maybe, there is a slim possibility that these people will see themselves in these stories and realize they did something stupendously stupid. If we just ignore it, nothing will change.

I saw a lady make that same left turn onto the MMP heading towards the tunnel then realized her error and turned into the Colony parking lot just before the pool.

I wonder why they are not posts in the ground to prevent anything wider than a cart to pass.

these are retirees who drive a golf cart 90% of the time, and then forget how to drive a car the other 10% of the time. . .

Are you sure what you saw was not one of the newer style Atomics that look just like a small 4 door SUV? I know of a couple of people that thought they were actual SUV's. In fact, I took a double take the first time I saw one.

Negative. It was definitely a car; not one of those smart car look-a-likes.

Probably because no one stops them from doing it.

Yea! Never a cop around when you need one.
