A bike rider uses the pavement to avoid the pick up truck LP73ODM parked on the pavement and on double yellows.
The route is used by hundreds of school children. Why isn’t there a protected bike lane along here?

A @limebike was seen on the pavement yesterday.
In other news, a driver drove over the pavement on Adys Rd, mounting a bell bollard to stop drivers going on the pavement and flipping their car over.

Vehicles evading ANPR cameras (by covering their number plates) to drive down school streets are a common sight on the roads around Dulwich.
Where is the police action to arrest these illegal drivers?

Many vehicles are ignoring the closure signs and getting stuck trying to turn around to head back up to Crystal Palace.

The Bentley driving parents of Dulwich Prep give a big thumbs up to parking dangerously outside the schools on Alleyn Park.
A school street on Alleyn Park can’t come soon enough to protect those travelling to Kingsdale and Dulwich Prep.

A Met Police van parked illegally & dangerously on a zebra crossing in Dulwich, blocking drivers’ sight lines to pedestrians crossing.
⚠️3pts and a fine for drivers.
But the police must be attending an emergency? No, just queuing for pastries from Gail’s bakery. 😡

Another driver ignores the many signs and drives through the new Dulwich Square
There is no traffic light for vehicles, so exiting he will be driving at cyclists turning in.
At least this one hasn’t covered his number plates and so should get a ticket from Southwark

On a drive out of Dulwich, it doesn't matter if the speed limit is 20, 30 or 40, you will still see dangerous drivers who ignore the speed limit.
But 20mph limits reduce crashes and reduce insurance premiums for drivers.

The only realistic solution to the dangerous parking on Alleyn Park is a school street.
BMW drivers dropping off at @KingsdaleFS and @DulwichPS are at it again, driving over the signs to remind drivers about dangerous parking.

Beware of the driver of Audi LL64XHN and if you see such an incident, please record video and report to the @metpoliceuk
It is just a matter of time before a driver like this causes a serious incident, the sort that we see far too often in Dulwich.
