WHY is it that any obstacle invented for road safety to slow down motorists is like a red flag to a bull (Speed cushions not the answer, Letters, June 12).
Most motorist complain about 20mph zones, humps and the condition of the roads services, potholes, etc, then complain when roads are closed for repairs.
What happened to patience, courtesy and understanding and safety for all?
As a challenge to the motorists, be a pedestrian, stand at the kerb or crossing and see how long it takes for someone to stop and let you cross. Don’t forget the Green Cross Code, like my colleagues and myself, as road safety officers, and learn from experiences of courtesy, patience and safety.
