Submitted by Steve Aynsley – Deadline to sign up by: 07 November 2008 – Signatures: 113

More details from petition creator

Road humps, chicane, narrowing of roads, speed cameras and unneccesary traffic light systems, all seemingly engineered to put drivers off whilst driving as well as damage vehicles.

The government persist in placing these dangerous obstacles on our road systems.

How many of you look worryingly at your speedometer more than you used to?

Drive along one of those crazy 'chicane' things and see how observant you are to your left and right in comparison to when the road was unobstructed?

A street where I had lived for 7 years had not seen any road accidents in that entire time, after they made a 'chicane' along that road, there were 2 pedestrians injured on the road, and 3 vehicles written off at end of the road within 18 months, and that's just the ones I heard about!

Drivers should be allowed to concentrate on the road and to be unhindered in observing their surroundings.

We petition the government to remove all measures which cause accidents, chicanes, road narrowing (including narrow markings which seem to serve no purpose other than to cause accidents), speed cameras and speedbumps from our roads.
