The list gets bigger every week, it’s not that bad in
Pompey.
I may have to move back, so many drink and drug problems
on the Island.
Pompey has a massive drugs problem. I was chatting to a taxi driver last week who was saying the police now stop them. So they can check the passengers for drugs. I only mentioned it, having got off the Catamaran, walked to the hard and was greeted with a woman lying on the ground, obviously off her nut. A female police officer was struggling to control her. Meanwhile another one was just stood there across the road, zombie like. Similar to those drug addicts you see in Philadelphia in the States.
Too many dodgy Caulkheads
Best way to sort out the speeding motorists on the
Island, do what Sevenoaks in Kent are doing
20MPH Town Wide Speed limit.
Come on IW Council, do what other Labour areas
are doing.
Let’s make our roads a safe place for everyone.
Lower speed limits don’t make roads safer. They mean more people are on the road for longer, because you can’t get anywhere, causing more traffic, more air pollution, wasting more fuel, and creating more opportunities for accidents. Do it like Germany and create more unrestricted roads. They have some of the lowest accident rates in the world and very safe drivers by comparison.
Germany’s traffic ‘accident’ statistics are not exceptional. They rank mid-table in most measured categories and their death numbers are about 60% higher than here in the UK. Although, with a population larger by about 40% that might be expected.
And Germany is not adding to its limit-free autobahns, in fact the opposite is happening. Slowly but surely the white-signed, limit free roads are being replaced by the red-signed speed-limited roads.
It was proposed over 20 years ago, probably still stuck in the council process in-tray awaoting discovery
I cannot understand your thinking on this subject of speeding and bringing the speed limits down. If these mindless idiots cannot stick to within other speed limits, why would they not break the 20mph limit. I would give them a heavy fine, take their car away and give them a long driving ban.
Omg more old farts again I think it’s time for youth vs old
Yet another stunning set of non deterrent sentences, hope you all sleep well at nights
Well at least we know if someone p*sses you off then you can do whatever you like to them and just get a 12 month community order
What a joke the justice system is.
I do loads and I get nothing
