Ms Macbeth Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Steep, narrow streets in my part of Hillsborough, cars parked both sides, but the idiots still hurtle down them. Dykes Hall Road, and around Wynyard, Garry, Dorothy etcp. When I learnt to drive I was taught to drive according to conditions, even 30mph isn't mandatory, its maximum. 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewC Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Delivery drivers from places on Ecclesall Road; parking wherever they like (including fully on the pavements (Dominos Pizza, Cemetery Road)), pulling out and turning across the road aggressively, then shooting off at high speed, either way up Ecclesall Road or up Broomgrove/Southgrove Roads. And all to deliver a 12" pizza and some chips before it gets cold. In a 5-door estate. That's who it is rushing about round my way, anyhow..

Be My Bubble Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 At a time when the emergency services are stretched to breaking point the last thing anyone needs is to be involved in a road accident. Carry on doing your bit by demonstrating considerate driving. Over the last 2 years we have had the highest number of children killed or seriously injured on English roads behind Birmingham and Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiffRaff Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 There were two bikers having a coffee outside our local deli this morning, bragging that they'd each managed to achieve 140 mph on the Dronfield bypass the other evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassett one Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 this is the problem,we have the covid 19 problem,fewer cars on the road ,and people seem to think its okay to try to beat the sound barrier,we need more speed cameras ,they will help tackle this problem or does it work?
