‘Excessive speeds’

Dear Editor:

I live on Sideroad 19. The speed has now been dropped to 40km/h. 

I can’t believe the amount of people that drive excessive speeds on our street. I called the OPP to have a little enforcement on our road. My mistake was asking for a little … that’s what we got! The police drove back and forth on the road four times and left. People are going 60 to 80km/h on our street – it’s amazing no one has been hit.

Asking for speed control from the town, or the OPP has been a waste of time. 

Yes the town re-posted from 50 to 40; this has done nothing to slow all the inconsiderate people driving on this road … maybe the people from the new subdivision west of the Beatty Line, could have a little respect for the speed limit. 

It has gotten worse since they moved in.
