Speeding in the village – February 2023 update

The shared SAM2 speed monitor has just completed the second month of its current deployment in Claxton, located down from the Village Hall facing traffic coming from the direction of Rockland and Norwich.

The table below covers the period from 1-28 February.

What does it show?  That just over 3 out of every 4 drivers drove through within the 30MPH speed limit, and that 96% were in or just over that limit.

Regrettably it also shows 58 times when cars came through in excess of 40MPH, which is completely unacceptable.

Elsewhere on this site there is mention of a planned Community Speed Watch Team.  If (like your Site Manager) you are appalled at the behaviour of some drivers, why not put yourself forward for this Team?  You don’t have to do it every day – just every so often.
