It takes weeks to navigate one's way under roundabouts and thru tunnels and come up and go in the correct direction, and to know the kinds of pitfalls there are to driving a cart here, amongst cars, giant trucks, and trucks with trailers. Last edited by goodtimesintv; 01-08-2016 at 11:14 PM. |

While we were there, the guy driving behind us on 441 got read-ended by a Mack truck and his vehicle got pushed into us, doing a considerable amount of body damage. |

It's astonishing how many golf cart drivers make a left-hand turn from the cart path on a road, rather than merging with traffic and signalling their intention.

Was driving home tonight on Buena Vista and passed a regular golf cart, no street legal plate. It crossed the intersection with 466 after I turned and kept on going.

I was coming home after visiting Oxford Oaks going east on 466, when I was shocked to see a golf cart in front of me. I thought maybe the person had gotten lost and was heading back to The Villages, but that person made a left onto 301 heading north.
A couple of nights later we were heading home from Spanish Springs and had a car heading toward us on the golf cart path. It was dark, so I am sure the lady driving had visited someone at one of the facilities over there, and thought she made the street. Try to be safe out there!!!

No doubt in my mind that cars are safer than golf carts in TV. Why? For all the reasons others have already posted on this Thread. I've seen some of the same "things" myself after almost 10 years in TV. This time of year---January-April----it behooves us to be aware of our surroundings while driving both our golf cart and our car.

Almost nailed 2 golf carts who both barreled thru the stop sign @ the Bailey Trail gate of of the Lake Miona Rec Center--UNBELIEVABLE

That's a tough one, and if you're coming through the Bailey Trail gate from BV, the gatehouse blocks your view of the cart path on the left.

No one expects a motorist to swerve into the path of an oncoming vehicle and risk your life, and that of others, to avoid a dog. But I would expect you to brake and pull over. To help if at all possible. And to show some feelings, some compassion and regret.
