A message to ALL car drivers
- Concerned Citizen (7th Jul 2017 - 21:04:43)
To everyone who drives a car in Liphook,
Guess what the speed limit is in the village centre?
ITS 20 MPH NOT 30 MPH
Guess what you do at a roundabout?
Go to a controlled stop and check to see if it is safe to go (giving way to the right)
you DO NOT just go 40 MPH and nearly hit a pedestrian and get into a car crash!
Guess what you do when going around a bend?
You SLOW DOWN!
The point I am trying to get to all car drivers and sometimes cyclists too is that you need to start respecting other car drivers and pedestrians. Within the space of 4 weeks I have nearly been ran over twice! One time a car driver didn't stop at a roundabout and didn't do any kind of indication. The other time I was crossing the road near sainsbury's on the bend and a red car decides to be going at 50 MPH without even stopping at the roundabout and no indication! LEARN HOW TO DRIVE!

Whilst I agree many people drive too fast through the village you do not have to come to a controlled stop approaching a roundabout they are all give way. Which means slow down and be prepared to stop.

We have accepted new people into our community, we accept what they bring with them, far too few of them will make the effort to accept (what used to be) our way of life. This goes to driving, littering, noise etc...
To all PC backlasher trolls: I know we have Liphook breed bad drivers too!
