The two types of vehicles that do the majority of speeding around similar 20mph roads near me are:
- Royal Mail vans
- Estate Agent cars
Walking out in front of them to force them to slow down is my usual tactic. For the estate agent cars a quick trip into their local office to complain usually works for a while.
Complaining to the council may help (see if you can get some other local residents to complain separately), with enough complaints they'll probably set up a traffic survey there (the two air hoses stapled to the road connected to a box chained to a lamp post) to assess the mean/median/max speeds.

If there's a road I think is dangerous (residential side road, 2 way and v narrow.. i regularly see people doing what must be approaching 40mph on it). I want the council to have a look at it and decide whether or not to encourage people to calm the fuck down, how do I go about this?
