I live on Ashford Road, Bearsted, Maidstone, UK. Every day, I witness speeding cars and lorries zooming through our village at alarming speeds of up to 70mph. The A20 is not just any road; it's a part of our community that has become a danger zone due to reckless driving.

Historically, the A20 has been a hotspot for traffic accidents with fatalities recorded. This is not merely an observation but backed by data showing that lives have been lost on this stretch of road. There used to be a speed warning sign here which was removed for reasons unknown.

We are calling upon local authorities to reinstall safety measures - specifically, we demand the installation of a speed camera on the A20. This will act as an effective deterrent against speeding vehicles entering and exiting the road thus reducing accidents significantly.

This petition isn't just about improving road safety; it's about preserving lives in our community. We cannot stand by while our friends and neighbors are put at risk daily due to excessive speeds on this section of highway.

Please join us in urging local authorities to take immediate action by installing a speed camera on the A20 in Bearsted, Maidstone. Your signature can make all the difference - let's make our roads safer together!
