SPEEDWATCH
Dear All
You may well have heard of Speedwatch
This is a scheme where volunteers assist the Police manning speed cameras at specific locations in the uttoxeter area.
The volunteers log the speed of the vehicles. This is passed on to the Police who then write to the motorists advising them of their speeds and ask them to be more considerate in the future.
Vehicles are not stopped by the volunteers. Full training is given. Is done in daylight hours only. Site locations are provided by the Police’ usually in complaint areas.
In many other areas in the county N.W. members have been heavily involved and has been proved to be a valuable road safety initiative.
Uttoxeter area is looking for a few more volunteers to make it a viable proposition.
Have you got a few spare hours a week ??, can you assist
If you can assist or would like more information please contact Chief Insp Andy Mason at
