25 mph sign is missing. Twining road has a high number of motorists speeding. This missing sign does not help. The location of the missing sign can be viewed on Google Maps Street View. The sign is shown on the 2007 view, but not on the 2012 view.

25 mph sign is missing. Twining Rd has a high
number of motorists speeding. This sign has been missing for years. It can be viewed on Google Maps Street View. The sign is shown on the 2007 view, but not on the 2012 view.

The 25 mph sign shown in the attached picture has been
missing for several months. The sign may have been knocked
down by a motorist. It also may have been moved, since at
about the same time another 25 mph sign appeared around
the bend in the northbound direction closer to Welsh Rd.

If the sign was moved, it may be because it was viewed as
overkill since there was, and still is another 25 mph sign
just south of Dale Rd on TwiningRd.

If this is the reason; the sign near 1803 Twining is the one that
should have stayed, in my opinion. That sign while still reinforcing for motorists driving northbound on Twining Road,
also establishes 25 mph as the speed limit for motorists that
cut thru Willow Manor on to Twining Rd.

If possible, for whatever reason the 25 mph just north of
Dale Rd on Twining Rd is missing, I feel that it is needed
and should be replaced.

Missing 25 mph sign. Has been missing since around the
time frame March to May of 2017. This sign disappeared
around the time another 25 mph sign appeared closer to
Welsh Rd. A possible reason for moving it could have been
that there is another sign still in place just south of Dale
Rd (in the same direction, toward welsh Rd).

If two signs were viewed as overkill, In my opinion it would
have been better to move the 25 mph sign south of Dale Rd
to the new location.

A 25 mph sign just north of Dale Rd while still reinforcing
the speed limit for motorists going northbound from south
of Dale Rd, also establishes 25 mph as the speed limit
for motorists who cut thru Willow Manor to Twining Rd.

Moving of the 25 mph sign around 1803 Twining Rd is just
speculation on my part, since I always thought it was rather
redundant. Either way, If possible I would like the 25 mph
sign replaced.

Missing 25 mph speed limit sign (see attached Google Maps
Street View picture). Knocked down or removed. Sign was
useful to establish speed limit on Twining Road for motorists
cutting thru Willow Manor and turning right from Dale Road
on to Twining Road northbound.

Stated location is just the approximate mid-point of a problem
that I have dealt with for 40 years. The problem exists the
entire length of Twining rd.

The problem is AGGRESSIVE DRIVING. There are two virtually inseparable aspects of this problem: Speeding
and tailgating. During a conversation with a representative
of the Upper Dublin Police Department I stated that , my
quess is that 90% of the motorists on Twining road were
speeding. The police response was something to the effect
of "try 95%." Yet I as told that the situation was being
monitored and tickets were being issued. All that I can say
to that is that whatever they are doing is inadequate and
ineffective. While both speeding and tailgating (following
to closely) are motor vehicle code violations, It seems that
little weight is given to tailgating. If you use Twining Road on
a routine basis it is a virtual certainty that you will have some-one right on your bumper. Most of the Length of Twining Road
is posted at 25 mph, a speed limit that is almost universally
ignored. If you tap your brakes as per instructions in the PA
drivers manual, you are taking a chance of inciting an incident
of ROAD RAGE. Yes, that is yet another aspect of the
standard operating procedure of the AGGRESSIVE DRIVER.

I certainly understand that the police can't be everywhere,
but I think there are things that add something to the statue
quo that I would best describe as PASSIVE ENFORCEMENT.

First the Police could use unmarked cars ( not the standard
black Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor{with cheap
hub caps} with BLUE MG plates}, but normal cars that
won't be viewed as POLICE VEHICLES. Next have officers
drive around to see what the driver that obeys speed limits
sees ( If while off duty they happen to observe speed limits,
they might have a heads-up on the situation). Next once an
accurate base line of that is going on, the next step could
be to do what iI have done to record Aggressive Driving
Behavior on Twining Road. I have cameras that I have used
to record aggressive driving. They could be used as in court
evidence to refute a charge of aggressive driving!
