Community Speedwatch: March schedule.


Sally Eva

Recommended Posts

Traffic policing is coming up the political agenda. And about time too, I hear you say.


Speedwatch tells police something they don't often want to hear. All those people complaining about speeding past their front doors, their children and their back wheels just might be right.


Volunteers doing Speedwatch produce data, from the Met's own speedcameras, which says lots of speeding goes on when the patrol cars are not around.


Top speed of 2022 so far is a motorbike doing 80. But cars can pull the stops out too. Details of how it works are here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/66-in-a-20mph-zone/.


The man in charge is PCSO Kevin Phillips. He's affable, cheerful and shocked by some off the numbers we clock. You can contact him on [email protected]. The March schedule is below but if the dates/times don't suit you or you know some super-bad places let him know. He's very flexible.

    • Dunstans Road  comes under Dulwich Hill SNT- you can get their details on the Met Police website . I know that the Police are often patrolling Dawson Hights. Please contact them,
    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).
    • Found it but cannot contact owner as no email or message on it. e*****@icloud.com   please let me know if you’ve recently lost an Apple Watch SE
    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
