'...put up 20 mph speed limit road signs in local roads around our schools by January 2014. We, the children of Barnet are asking Barnet Council to help make our journey to school safer and protect us from speeding cars by introducing a 20 mile per hour speed limit and looking at other ways to encourage drivers to slow down to enable us to walk and cycle to school without fear of being knocked down by speeding cars. We are asking that the Local Authority put up 20mph signs in our local streets by January 2014 and make sure drivers don’t ignore them with the help of regular speed checks. “20mph zones are very effective at preventing injuries and RoSPA would like to see their wider use in residential areas. 20mph zones significantly decrease the risk of being injured in a collision through reducing vehicle speeds. Their greater use, especially in residential areas, would help to reduce the number of traffic injuries in the UK.” The Society for the Prevention of Accidents, November 2012' -- Sonya Karafistan
