Require green/red interactive speed feedback signs before average speed checks

Petition Details

Require the installation of green/red interactive speed feedback signs at every entrance to all existing and new average speed checks.

Additional Information

We believe the current average speed check system feels predatory based on drivers unintentionally breaking speed limits based on lapses in concentration, hazards in front of them, speed check signs which are hidden behind trees, speed check signs way too high, cameras hidden on lamp posts and drivers being unaware of a speed limit change.

We think adding the glowing coloured signs could give people the chance to slow down to an appropriate speed for the average check and drive through safely.
