Residents paying for traffic calming would lead to a kind of road safety apartheid with wealthy areas having humps and chicanes and poor areas having zilch. I disagree with those stupid flashing speed limit signs, when I ride along Thorpe Road cars cannot overtake me without triggering them, they're pointless. We need proper enforcement and proper sentences for idiot drivers who place the importance of shaving seconds off their journey above vulnerable road users' welfare.
