I wonder if you have recently run the gauntlet of speeding Range Rovers, BMW’s, Mercedes and other assorted automobile exotica that choose Ashley Road Hale for their daily dose of drag strip racing?

Challenges include; avoiding car doors, narrowly missing innocent pedestrians, driving the wrong way up the road to get around vehicles being parallel parked, beeping your horn and waving your arms about at residents stupidly trying to leave their own driveways. This is all done whilst maintaining as high a velocity as possible.

I would invite you at any time of the day or night to witness the near misses that such irresponsible driving serves up on an hourly basis. Is it about time that Hale residents demanded a 20 mile an hour speed limit and speed control measures. It surely is only a matter of time before there is a serious incident.

Yours faithfully

Ashley Road Resident
