It' seems to be a nationwide infection ( see my post
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=26175) ,on local to me. Local busybodies create a noise about speeding vehicles, and politically insensed police hierarchy rush out speed teams to the areas. Result ,a low percentage of vehicles are over the limit.BUT,by how much ? AND did tyhe conditions warrant a lower speed, or that of the limit, or even ( in a lot of cases the limit that existed before the political degrading of limits) .
Mean while,as a neighbourhood watch co -inordinator ,I regularly get reports of break ins. The more I get ,the more it seems that Peter E's avature is being shown as the truth in crime policing.
Then today, I had a trip to nearest Tesco for fuel ( at 6p/litre ,the three mile trip makes it worth while). On a major island, I found one exit conned off at the exit. I was positive I'd seen no warning signs,and on return checked. The only one I could see was on the exit prior to the obstruction . On the way back,I saw one of Warks patrol cars in a petrol station ,and informed the PC. I got the impression that he was not in the slightest interested , and as I had to return via this island I followed him ,to see him exit before the obstruction .This meant he'd not see it.
