The light at Winn Dixie and Culvers (Pinellas maybe) has a crosswalk. I haven't tried it yet.

Walk fast and be prepared to dodge a few cars

No way. Pinellas and 466a run parallel. They do not cross and there is NO cart tunnel under 466a in the area around Lowes etc. Only a 466a tunnel near Morse by Colony plaza. And one near Buena Vista. NO carts can travel across 466a by Lowe’s area.

A street legal cart can cross there. Just like they can cross 466A on Buena Vista or Morse.

You might want to check a map rather than demonstrate ignorance. It *is* Pinellas that meets 466A at Winn Dixie (Penrose on the Culvers side)

Score: Bill-1, TVguy-0

But in all fairness, they do run parallel for most of the way, it's only when Pinellas turns north after Hendry Dr. and heads out the gate to meet 466A at the light that the 2 intersect.

I go to the other Lowes all the time that you can get to legally by golf cart. Since you can’t get to Home Depot by cart we go to Lowe’s up north.

Point taken. But a regular golf cart cannot cross over. Didn’t know we were keeping score. If so, I’m probably -47 on TOTV…

Scoring is a new feature I’m offering. First month is free, then your credit card will be charged monthly 😂😂😂

Interesting point of view from Wildwood PD. Since Pinellas Plaza is also In Wildwood it would be their jurisdiction. If this is true they need to take down the "No Carts Beyond This Point" sign on Pinellas. Unless the Officer meant street legal carts may cross. I've seen plenty of carts do it already, but to me it's risky as cars on 466A are flying and many go thru the red light.

Call the Wildwood PD..............they will correct your thoughts.

They surprised me as well.

According to Wildwood PD...............It does not have to be a Street Legal.

SL or not...............no thinks.

45 mph T-Bone = Death.
