In 2005, 80 people were killed on the roads in Avon and
Somerset, and 616 were injured, many as a result of excessive
speeding.
With limited resources available, rural areas receive less
regular robust Police attention than main trunk roads and
motorways, despite the fact that a high proportion of
accidents are on country roads.
Community Speed Watch has proved to be very effective in helping
to provide a solution to the speeding problem in these areas.
