   So far, this 20mph limit is rarely observed. This is especially so of the local farmers and their contractors who drive their enormous tractors at insane speeds around Lusty and through the rail bridge. The drivers who seem to be very young mouth obscenities as we wave at them to slow down; only yesterday a near collision as one of these monsters hurtled down hill on the wrong side of the road coming head on to a full family car. Councillors pay only lip service to solving the problem with very visible speed camera actions two thirds of the way down the Plox, very visible, no police back up. You do this in the wrong place every time. Why not do it from the traffic island in Lusty then you will see almost 100% of vehicles speeding. Please do not wait for another death here. We all recall the last one very vividly.

   20mph – this is a total joke. I have recently moved to Bruton and think I am the only one sticking to the speed limit. I agree with Mr White that tractor, lorry and van drivers seem to think the High Street is a race track. In fact a motorbike passed my house and he must have been doing at least 40!
   Cameras and/or more police presence needed.
