I enclose a copy of a paper entitled Human Rights and Speed Enforcement that I have spent a considerable amount of time and effort preparing. It details how the government, police and county councils are contravening the Human Rights Act with regard to speed enforcement. I believe the council's intransigence in approving 30mph speed limits for villages (as recommended by the government) is illegal. As a consequence it also leaves the council liable to compensation claims for any future injury/death by a speeding vehicle. The council also has a lamentable record with regard to 20mph Home Zones and Quiet Lanes. |
