And so it continues with you and your comments. I still feel sorry for you. I’m sure you can never be in the wrong. Sad excuses.

I’m sorry for you, not comprehending the difference between an explanation and an excuse

Also, I doubt that those *****s that want police out to catch speeding golf carts have never exceeded 19.9.

Golf cart especially the gas types have a high center of gravity and relatively high wheels. Allowing them to go over 20 MPH is inviting wrecks, collisions, overturned vehicles, and driver and passenger DEATHS. It is just a matter of numbers - I wish the Police could say what % of golf carts have their governors JACKED-UP. I would guess that it is around 30% just going by the excessively high speed that I observe going by my house.
.........About 60 or 70% of the drivers are content to cruise along at 15 to 20 MPH. But then there are the 30% crowd that are going 25 to 35 MPH. That is just having ZERO concern for their fellow man. You would think that The Villagers would be above that JUVENILE BEHAVIOR........but some seem to love wallowing in the glory of owning a tampered-with Golf Cart governor.

ElDiabloJoe never denigrated fireman. Don’t know how you could ever get that from his posts. As for you being a first responder yourself, it’s impossible to believe it or anything you post.

My cart was never tampered-with, The Villages set the speed and I can fly at 23 mph with a slight downhill.......wind at my back doesn't hurt.

If you couldn’t understand that from the context in which it appeared then perhaps Internet forums are not for you.

I'm very familiar with GE posting style. But, that claim was, imho, stated as if he meant it. I like a joke and a tall tale, but this didn't seem like one. He was mad at a poste and wanted to "shut him up" and decided (apparently) that coming off as an expert would do the trick. Didn't go as planned.

Ok, that’s a pretty fair assessment, except for the “didn’t come off as planned “ part. I couldn’t anticipate how dense some people are

That is a cool idiom. One of my favorites has something to do with glass houses.

Well, if by dense you mean I've been a Mensa member for two decades, then perhaps your definition of dense should be reevaluated with reflection toward one's self. I didn't just google Broken Windows, I read and analyzed the text in grad school. You like to call me idiotic and dense, but I assure you, I am neither. Resorting to name calling is usually the last attack tool of the cerebrally lacking.

Yep, that must be it
