Speedwatch
The
newly trained speedwatchers were out in Grove Green and observed drivers going
over 45 mph in the 30 mph zone of Grovewood Drive South during the evening.
“Don’t get your car registration number on the Police database” is the
message from Martin Pepper coordinator and Chairman of Boxley Parish Council.
“Speedwatch is about changing behaviour not necessarily getting more numbers
in the data base, I hope what we are doing improves the safety and attitude to
sensible driving speeds for the people in Grove Green.”
The
registrations of the offending vehicles have been supplied to Kent Police and
any other reports of speeding by the vehicles will result in action.
