Car on Golf Course Cart Path
This didn't happen in The Villages, but a person drove onto the course paths with a car.
Maybe it was a shortcut to avoid slow drivers. Access Denied |

Actually, I have seen cars on the golf cart paths in the 10 years we have lived here.

I had to stop a car that turned onto the path at Lake Deaton preparing to go into the bridge over rt44.

Lat year I encountered a pick up truck mid span on that bridge, interestingly he was headed north. Wonder how he got onto the bridge in the first place. I've also encountered a SUV coming out of the tunnel near Liberty Park on the BV MMP. Like Judge Judy says, "you can't fix stupid".

I am still trying to figure out how she got to the turnpike.

Been there, done that…
Carol Lynn Crispino, 64, who lives at 760 Kauska Way in the Fruitland Park section of The Villages, pleaded not guilty on Tuesday in the case in Sumter County Court. Her written plea was entered by her attorney, Bradley Bonifacino. Crispino was driving a brown 2021 Yamaha golf cart at 8:15 p.m. Sept. 4 when a Road Ranger spotted her traveling south on the turnpike near Exit 304. The New York native was directed to the Okahumpka Service Plaza where she admitted to a trooper from the Florida Highway Patrol that she had “about three drinks with dinner at Brownwood Square in The Villages,” the report said. She provided breath samples that registered .150 and .157 blood alcohol content. She has already paid a $166 ticket charging her with improper operation of a golf cart on a roadway.

There's an Eastbound turnpike on-ramp that's about a 3 minute cart ride from the entrance to the Village of DeLuna. Lots of room on the shoulder of 301 to drive a cart from there to the on-ramp.

Not a golf course story but... There's a guy that rides a "crotch rocket" motorcycle to take Marsh Bend Trail coming from 301 in DeLuna over the cart mvp bridge over the Turnpike to get to Meggison Rd. Broad daylight, I'll give that, he's resourceful!

I’ve noticed in the past few weeks with new arrivals the trend of using the exit of neighborhoods to take the roundabout to cut across Bueno Vista to get to the neighborhoods across the street…..Accidents waiting to happen

Car on multi-modal paths
I’ve seen this phenomenon four or fives times in TV. Fortunately, no accident occurred from the mistake.

That has already happened...more than once!!! Also saw one with a couple of young ladies in it going down El Camino Real not too long ago. I guess grandpa didn't give instructions that were specific enough before he turned them loose in the golf cart.
