What in the world has gotten into the people who, on a daily basis, speed up and down residential streets? Not a day goes by that we don’t have cars, SUVs, school buses, garbage trucks, delivery trucks and service trucks speeding on Nassau Drive.
Living on a street that has an enhanced fine for speeding ($200 additional fine for speeding) obviously means nothing to these people. I know that the police can’t be everywhere at the same time, but if residents continually call the traffic complaint line, you would think that once in a while they would monitor these streets and give out some tickets.
Putting the speed trailer on a street is a temporary fix since people only slow down when it’s there. Maybe Prince William County should consider installing speed bumps on streets where there are major speeding complaints.

The police are too occupied c hecking papers of illegals to worry about commu ity speeders. PWC has set it priorities.

There is much debate in PWC about whether we should enforce the laws or not.
