The Case for a Compulsory 20 mph

This morning we drove past Penyffordd Post Office. On the side there are rings to tie your dog to.
There is a dog attached to a lead. There is also a 5 year old child unattached. Mother, father or sister are in The Post Office. So the unattended 5 year old child is walking around next to the dog, 15 feet from a road where cars do 40 mph.

What's a risk assessment to make of that scenario? If I had a child it would be on a lead with me in the Post Office. The sad fact is a lot of people don't do the "what if" question.

So we have to have laws and methods such as traffic calming platforms and Arrive Alive to deal with the great unthinking who pass my house which is on a route to school at 50 mph every morning.

Only they are not in place or being enforced.
