Speeds Through The Neighborhood

Posted in: Salem Woods Maintenance Association
It amazes me the speeds some people do through our neighborhood. With all the families with small children and all the walkers and bikers it is so dangerous. In the last three weeks I have had several cars PASS me going through the neighborhood and two of them while i was slowing down to go over the speed bumps. It is disturbing to know they use our neighborhood like a freeway. I just pray no one is hurt while the speeders feel the need to get to their destination in seconds flat.

Speeding

I couldn't agree with you more. I have also been passed several times. The police are also very aware of this problem and several other issues and have been patroling more and also using mounted police. I also cannot figure out why some drivers need to drive over lawns and throught the open spaces.

By either contacting the neighborhood's representative or non-emergency police, the county police can start patrolling more in our neighborhood.  Unfortunately, we cannot change disrespectful drivers--only ticket them!
