Does not tackle the main issue

While I mostly agree with 20mph zones in specific places, it does not tackle the major issue. I have driven through many of the 20mph areas en route to Inverness recently, I havenoticed that regardless of the 20mph signs most still travel at 30 mph, this renders the limits useless. On top of that the villages within moray already have 30mph yet again these are ignored as people have been seen driving at much higher speeds even around school areas because they know they can get away with it. There are no speed cameras nor police presence through these areas at all and signage does not stop nor deter dangerous driving/speeds. Dropping the limits and spending on signs is useless if there is no action that is taken on the offenders.

Going in the right direction but...

I am generally supportive of 20mph zones to improve safety for all road users, particularly pedestrians and cyclists. But where the 20mph zones form part of a long-distance journey, some means of maintaining a fast connection is essential. One alternative to road transport is the train but but the rail infrastructure from Aberdeen through Moray to Inverness desperately needs upgrading if car drivers are to have practical alternatives. I understand this is out with direct Moray Council control but you should be having conversations.

Findochty speed change proposal.

I have read about the proposal to change the majority of Findochty to a 20mph zone which i completely agree with, but there is no point in wasting money on new signs for them to be ignored. Findochty speed limit already gets ignored especially at school times as there is no enforcement of the speed limit so it would make no difference for the limit to be reduced. Until the speed limit is actually enforced it would simply be a waste of time and money on new signs.
