Crossing the street from SafeShip to where my cart was parked, a man in a white SUV determined he wanted a specific parking spot. So he turned behind me, GOING THE WRONG WAY, so he could park in 'his' spot. I pointed my index finger in the opposite way he was going, indicating that he was going the wrong way. So he gives me THE FINGER. Vulgar, inconsiderate, as well as unsafe.
So when I am backing out of my parking spot, a woman in a golf cart almost hits me. She was doing the same thing...going against the flow/direction of traffic, as directed by the arrows.

Is this ultimate entitlement by Villagers ? You are unsafe. Follow the rules that the rest of us (most of us) follow. When you don't, you are endangering all others.

A lot of that going on. And almost no one is going the speed limit here in the Villages ' residential streets .

It happens all over and it's not just Villagers.

Perhaps stop being the traffic police…or join the sheriffs dept. all u had to do was pull out and not be a sanctimonious villager having to point out he was not going down the correct lne

Reading is ......

The OP was almost hit by someone disregarding the flow of traffic.

It seems almost neighborly to explain the meaning of those white arrows in the lanes to a confused, elderly driver.

Lot of that going on everywhere.
My motto "watch them all, all the time" whether walking or driving.
I don't get into it with people, half of 'em are probably carrying and waitin' to get into it.

agree not worth getting shot over

[villager7591]

Point is: he knew he was going wrong way but had NO consideration for anyone else. He wanted his parking spot.

And OP is required to look BOTH ways before backing out of a parking space.

And apparently did. Just like I look BOTH ways before crossing a one-way street. But I do that out of habit and not because I should anticipate someone driving the wrong way.
