Dear Editor,
I see the police are now monitoring speed in the village, in the hope of 'educating' motorists about the dangers of speeding.
This might work for locals, but the main offenders are bound to be those that
see the village as a short cut.

Dear Ed,
Whilst I agree with correspondent John concerning speeding, I am afraid that he is somewhat mislead about the "main offenders". These people are not always those from outside the village, but comprise a lot of those who should know much better. Why I followed one just the other morning; I was approaching the traffic lights (at about 20 mph as there were a lot of mothers and children about) when a car not only pulled out in front of me causing me to make an emergency application of my brakes to avoid a collision, but this driver then went on a proceeded to smash the speed limit.
Grumpy regards,
Lazarus
