This is insane in so many ways I hardly know where to start. 
WHAT would the community gain by allowing electric carts on that road??!! Traffic jams, underage drivers, accidents, and a lot of frustration. It makes about as much sense as the infamous blue signs.

I'm not sure what the best answer will be but I hope they find it in the end. whatever works - lower speed, speed bumps, and anything else it takes to keep everyone safe - do it. rules for mopeds and golf carts need to be established (on the road or on the path) and enforced.
lowering the speed on 30A won't hurt my feelings. there is absolutely no rush. but I am not sure I want to be driving on the same road with golf carts and mopeds.
tourists and others driving into Grayton have torn through the main street all the way to Red Bar - for years and years. stop signs, warning signs and speed bumps have helped a great deal. (the round traffic table put in several years ago - not sure what that was all about)... but we still see visitors fly through now and then - especially at night time. the residents of Grayton have taken every precaution to keep their children and everyone safe in their community,. I am thankful for that.
I think they made a mistake in paving the little adorable sandy roads in Grayton. the nice wide paving was just an invitation for fast driving cars!

My question is who passed the law to allow electric carts and mopeds on 30-a?much of the beauty of 30-a is it won't become another pamama city. this past summer there were many kids speeding wrecklessly around 30-a. THE AREA OF 45 MPH NEAR GRAYTON IS MOSTLY STATE PARK WITH FEW HOMES AROUND. if they change this it is souley to appease the electric carts and TO PROBABLY FURTHER EXPAND THERE USE. my question again is of the people in power pushing for this do they have a vested financial interest? Is somebody who's pushing for this reduced speed limit about to unleash 100's of these annoying vehicles on 30-a?
All I know is that I have not been favorably impressed by the LVL's I have seen being used so far and REALLY don't want to see more of it~!
Yes, I could see them being great in a different place with different roads/geography/population etc. but not here.
I also think lowering the speed limit on 30A and filling it with slow moving traffic will funnel more people off the main road and onto residential side roads - where they are more likely to hit bicyclists, kids, pets, and other vehicles etc.
P.S. Add those damn rented mopeds being operated w/o helmets or a clue to that disgust list too. (People who own them and know how to ride them are welcome.)

Does that mean they aren't currently allowed on 30-A because it has speed limits of more than 35?
I asked about that in another thread and was vehemently told they COULD drive them on it, but just in those areas that were 35 or lower (not that they go close to the speed limit or anything, which I think is a safety and traffic issue).
Either they aren't currently allowed (which would make my day) or they are - in which case why do they need to change the speed limits?
