Speeding cars in East Dulwich

[green ranger]

When??? Is some action going to be taken against all the maniac drivers blithely ignoring 20 mph speed limits?

How many more pedestrians and cyclists have to be seriously injured before some tough action is taken to crack down on these driver louts?

Oh and the reason I posted this?

Driving along Underhill Road today at 20mph some maniac drives up behind flashing lights, hooting her horn, then overtakes narrowly missing a cyclist before speeding off. To get to the junction with Barry Road ahead of me saving...er 1 second from her journey and nearly killing someone in the process.

These people ought to be banned from driving....for good

It will probably never happen. Why? Because the number of speeding drivers on any one side street is not enough to warrant the time and effort to stop them. If they are lucky, they might catch one or two an hour at a speed check point.

If there was a high number of incidents at a particular place then I'm sure something would be done. But it is too spread out.

Stolen car? rushing away from an accident?
