Okay… So this morning I turned on to Main St off Irrewillipe Rd and got stuck behind a couple of cars doing 50 after the school zone. I think it took maybe an extra 5-10 seconds to get to the traffic islands at Wilson St. Devastating really. ??
There’s a lot of people around this town who don’t seem to able to read ‘School Zone’ signs… I see it everyday in Armstrong St between Hearn & Pound. There’s also a lot of people that don’t know what a STOP sign is at Armstrong & Pound. Sadly this includes a lot of well known people and bus drivers. Hardly a day goes by without a near miss, so its only a matter of time until there is a connection.
Council have been made aware of this by myself in the past and more recently and is going to looked at sometime.
If I ever get worked up about something, I usually check all my facts before going on about it, as there’s nothing more awkward than being proved wrong when you’re venting! The effort this anonymous person went to is puzzling to me, as I certainly wouldn’t go to the effort of typing something, then (the cost of) printing it out, then (the cost of) driving to the shop and slipping it under the door (and driving home) without FACT CHECKING first! How embarrassing for this poor, blinkered, self centred, law breaking whinger…
Who ever it was mist have more spare time than me! LoL
Sometimes after I drop my kids at school, I’ll go for a drive around town which happens to take in a couple of school zones, with Elliminyt being 1 area and you can guarantee that there will be someone (often people I know) speeding either through the zone or towards it… probably because they can’t get the kids ready in time and are running late. Well they’ll be running late if they have an accident. Idiots!
