Such driving issues aren't confined to any particular area - IME they happen nationwide. Regardless, it is perverse and illogical to lower the speed limits in response to drivers failing to observe the speed limit. Enforcement of the existing speed limit would be a far more appropriate response, be that via increased police presence or via more speed cameras.
Yes it may be. But residents moan about speeding drivers until the council do something. lt happened on a road near here.
20mph signs were put up but were ignored.
Eventually the council did the next cheapest thing and put vicious speed humps on the road so now it's a nightmare to drive down there.
Cameras were suggested but there were too many side roads.
