The Village doesn’t have sidewalks and people stroll through the area on the streets with dogs and children in tow. Speeding cars and trucks are a dangerous mix in this environment.
Discussing speed in the Village has been controversial and everyone has an opinion. The vocal minority insist they are adults and don’t need speed bumps in order to slow down. However, every year there are people quietly asking the board to do something about those who don’t think the rules apply to them.
The most recent plea came from a resident on Cattle Drive. The complaint is that several people think it is okay to drive 30 to 35 miles per hour and even going the wrong way at these speeds. The request is for two speed bumps on that street.
Please don’t be the one who causes speed bumps to be placed on Cattle Drive. Village safety is much more important that an individual’s need to practice their skills for the next NASCAR race.
I am curious where cattle drive is in our area as i am not familiar with that street in WMVV?

What aggravates me most about this topic is it’s usually the same people speeding. Most of us who live in the Village are very aware of this issue, drive responsively, and with consideration for others. The ones who don’t may not even see these blogs. Get their license number and report them.
