If you know what's good for you ...
It's about time. Another child was knocked down in our little market town the other day - yet another. I'm sick and tired of seeing cars bombing though our town centre at 50 km/h (or above) when there are pedestrians trying to negotiate the pathetic pavements barely wide enough for two, when children are trying to cross the road and people's pets are being squashed. I'm fed up of the noise, the pollution, the stress ... A pedestrian struck by a car has a 90% chance of survival; a pedestrian hit at 45 km/h has less than 50%. Isn't it time we did something about it? The petition is here.
