Re: daft speed bumps!

Dont forget Gerard st is a 20MPH zone.When is the last time anyone did more than 20mph along this st.Inbetween the cars parked for the kfc/bank at one end and the cars loading from the carpet shop at the other end not much chance of getting out of 1st gear

Re: daft speed bumps!

Does anyone else find the lights on the pedestrian crossing STUPID, I am referring to those for pedestrians. Nationaly a small fortune has been wasted only to make things
dangerous. One large person stood in front of the green signal and no one else can see it. The best idea was in Spain where there is a count down for the time remaining for pedestrians to cross.

Re: daft speed bumps!

Personally as a pedestrian I miss the bleeping. I have to tell one of my children to put their hand on the spinny thing that is for the blind people cos I can't see the green man when there's a crowd waiting to cross and no bleeper to tell you when to cross either.
