Speeding and antisocial driving
Speeding
We sometimes receive requests for lower speed limits in locations where compliance with the existing speed limit is poor. The Police are responsible for enforcing the speed limit, so if you would like more enforcement of the existing speed limit you should contact Sussex Police.
Community speed watch
Residents can become involved in the Police’s Community Speedwatch (CSW) programme, which may help to reduce antisocial driving. Further details are available on the Sussex Police website or you can contact the district CSW administrator at CSW@sussex.pnn.police.uk
Operation Crackdown
Operation Crackdown allows you to report careless, dangerous or aggressive driving. You can also report vehicles driving in contravention of a prohibition, such as a weight or width restriction, or against a one-way system.
It only takes a few minutes, all reports are logged and actions may include police investigation or warning letters to drivers. When you use Operation Crackdown to report dangerous or anti-social driving, the system:
- Automatically checks whether the vehicle has been reported previously
- Links to the DVLA database and obtains the registered keeper’s details
Speed cameras
Speed camera management and locations are decided by Sussex Police. More information can be found on the Road Safety Data Portal | Sussex Police
Temporary road safety posters
Temporary posters, reminding drivers to keep to the speed limit can be arranged by your Town or Parish Council.
