Speed kills. Amazing the number of drivers who argue with that. Still everyone else agrees. Community speedwatch is a joint venture between TfL, the public and the Met to cut speeds in London. TfL provides the money and the public and the Met provide the person-power. Today the public will be represented by Southwark Cyclist […]
Southwark Cyclist Bob Eva will be representing the law-abiding public and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be representing the forces of law-n-order (the Met). The information they collect is used by the Met traffic police to set up their own speed traps. The support they receive directly from the public encourages the Met to care just […]
Our volunteers will be on Sydenham Hill catching speeding drivers and showing the Met how it's done. What's not to like? You can join in. PCSO Kevin Phillips organises the schedule but he's very flexible if you have a blackspot in mind. Email him on kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk. He will be very pleased to hear from you […]
A Southwark Cyclist volunteer will be on the road this morning helping the police nick drivers still hung over from New Year's Eve. The public are very supportive, drivers less so, but they soon calm down when they see the uniform. To join in, mail PCSO Kevin Phillips on kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk
New Year but the speed limit hasn't changed. A lot of speeding goes on along this road. Our local volunteers are doing their bit to persuade drivers into more law-abiding ways. The general idea is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/66-in-a-20mph-zone/ and the man to contact if you want to join in is PCSO Kevin Phillips on kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk
The team are concentrating on this bit of fast road which is used as a cut through by every van driver in south London. It's also used by young people from Dulwich College and Kingswood School. And is made still more fun by a blind left turn. To show your support email PCSO Kevin Phillips […]
A Southwark Cyclist volunteer will be standing beside the road with a speed gun and a PCSO in full uniform beside him. Both of them have to wear hi-vis (because rules). Still drivers don't spot them. Just bear that in mind when you are wondering if a driver has seen you or not. To join […]
Southwark Cyclists' volunteer Werner from the Healthy Rides is holding the speedgun for this session in his favourite hunting ground in Salter Road. Last time out they got four sheets of car numbers in an hour and Werner clocked a personal best of 60mph. You can join in. Email kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk or read more about it […]
Southwark Cyclists' volunteer Bob Eva will be under the protection of PCSO Kevin Phillips as he wields the speedgun near the junction of Village Way and Half Moon Lane. Speeding seems to be as popular as ever and the diminished visibility isn't putting anyone off. You can join in: mail Kevin on Kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk or read […]
Southwark Cyclists' volunteer Bob Eva, the speedgun and his personal protection, PCSO Kevin Phillips will be at the junction of Lordship Lane and Court Lane. This is always a popular spot with the guys -- lots of law-breaking, as anyone who cycles through here can testify. It's a mutual protection society. Kevin protects Bob from […]
