Bookmark

Police stopped ten drivers for speeding as part of a road safety operation focusing on speeding in Carlton and Linby.

As part of the Fatal5 week of action, the Operation Reacher and Gedling Neighbourhood team carried out the speed checks during their patrols of the borough earlier this week.

A police spokesman said: “Responding to community requests, officers first went to Wighay Road in Linby to do speed checks in the 30 zone.

“Four drivers were issued with a traffic report for speeding and one for no MOT.

“The teams then moved onto Southdale Road in Carlton where six more drivers were issued with traffic reports for speeding.

“Then just before we finished for the day a Transit was seized as the driver had no insurance and only a provisional license.”

  1. They should speed Check Digby Avenue in Mapperley, it’s a Rat Run, to avoid Cameras on Westdale Lane, Most Drivers have always gone over The Limit down there, there should be Cameras on there, as there’s 4 different types of Schools on there plus a Nursing Home but never any type of Speed Restrictions!
    They do Drive down this Road very fast at Times!
    Plus always Problems With Parking, it gets very Congested at Certain Times!
