Before the camera was in place they used to speed all the way to the junction at Union Rd.
When did you live there, before the flashing Saturday Night Fever Disco board before the bends, warning you of your speed, and telling you to slow down?

I've nothing against the speed calming measures, I just think they're also as needed on are what are now major rat runs to the motorways. Thre was a car doing well over 60mph coming down Fielding Lane tonight, near the Stop and Rest.
