Living on Ferncreek Drive in Fayetteville, NC 28314 has increasingly become a challenge for residents due to the alarming rates of speeding on this long stretch of road. The risk of collision near our homes, particularly around road curves and intersections, has shifted from a concern to an everyday threat. It isn't just our properties that are at risk; the safety of our families, our pets, and our fellow community members hangs precariously in the balance.

Several properties have already suffered damages as a result of reckless driving and excessive speeding. This has left residents with hefty repair costs and a lingering sense of unease. Everyday activities such as walking, jogging, driving, and even backing out of our driveways pose a significant risk due to the incessant flow of speeding vehicles. This is more than a matter of inconvenience; it’s a dire safety issue that demands urgent attention.

We understand that speed regulation is a challenging task, but we propose a simple yet effective solution: the installation of speed humps. These humps have proven effective in other neighborhoods to slow down traffic, thereby safeguarding both pedestrians and properties alike. Speed humps would not only help in reducing speed but would also encourage a culture of cautious and responsible driving within our community.

It is crucial for local authorities to acknowledge this pressing issue and act promptly. We believe that with their cooperation, we can create a safer neighborhood for everyone. We urge our local council and city planners to take this request seriously and prioritize the installation of speed humps on Ferncreek Drive.

Join us in our plea for safety. Sign this petition to support the installation of speed humps on Ferncreek Drive and help us protect our children, pets, and homes from the peril of reckless driving.
