HELP TO MAKE OUR VILLAGE SAFER FROM SPEEDING TRAFFIC 

TWO WEEKS AGO OUR LITTLE DOG ROCKY ESCAPED AND WAS HIT BY A SPEEDING DRIVER.   WE KNOW THIS AS IT WAS WITNESSED BY A NEIGHBOUR.  ANOTHER NEIGHBOUR HEARD THE TERRIBLE SCREAM AS THE CAR SLAMMED INTO HIM AND SHATTERED HIS LEGS.

 THE DRIVER DID NOT STOP BUT DROVE AWAY.

THE VETS BATTLED TO SAVE HIM BUT AFTER A WEEK HE LOST THE BATTLE AND DIED.  WE HAVE NO ROCKY, HIS PINING BUDDY THEO AT HOME AND AN 18K VET BILL AS THE INSURANCE COMPANY WON'T PAY OUT.

TRAFFIC CONSTANTLY FLOWS AND SPEEDS ALONG THE ROAD IGNORING THE SPEED CAMERA OR ACCELERATING AS SOON AS THEY PASS.  THE SPEED LIMIT IS 30MPH CURRENTLY BUT COUNCIL REPORTS HAVE CLOCKED VEHICLES GOING AS FAST AS 50MPH PLUS.  VILLAGERS STRUGGLE TO EVEN CROSS THE ROAD AT TIMES.  IT IS NOT SAFE, IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

IS IT GOING TO BE A CHILD NEXT TIME?

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION FOR THE COUNCIL TO REDUCE THE SPEED LIMIT FROM 30MPH TO 20MPH BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE SUFFERS A DEVESTATING LOSS OR GETS SERIOUSLY HURT

THANK YOU
