Glad we are all on the same page here. Even if there were a scheme where ANPR was used to record the registrations of the offending vehicles, and a list be made and published somewhere for public viewing. No driver details, just a vehicle and reg. Never can tell how many family members might apply pressure to persistant offenders. Would also be lovely to have some sort of log to be used for reference for the police.

There is no invasion of privacy with ANPR triggered by speed, its quite simple, dont want to be on it, DONT SPEED.

At the same time, its a shame nothing can be done about the ignorance of some pedestrians too. Walking infront of a car, speeding or not, does NOT ensure you safe passage across the road. Neither would a crossing of any sort. Plenty of people are hit on crossings, and I alone have almost been hit by 3 cars on the crossing outside the Co-Op, once by aCo-Op lorry! All jumping bright red lights.

At least a chicane would narrow the road for pedestrians to spend less time in the road, and well as slow the vehicles down enough. A parking enforcement camera would also be handy, especially for when Crystal Halls have an event on, and people park anywhere they please.

The whole situation leaves a lot to be desired really, but the only way forwards is compromise, and common sense by all parties.
