Spoken like a man with adult kids. Fawk that ... it only becomes second nature if the community lets it.
My kids are smart, but they're still 7 and 4 and can make mistakes in judgement like any child ... anyone caught speeding on my street will not only get reported, but they'll get an earful from me if it happens more than once and I don't mean rhetorically - I've done it a few times already.
One young "lady" (mouthy teenager) was prone to driving my street at almost twice the limit and then cruising straight through the stop sign at the end and straight into her driveway. I won't get into the details but she doesn't do it anymore and my neighbours applauded my initiative.

I have alot more important things to worry about then other people speeding down the street. I see it day in and day out and it has become second nature to most. Hell, I bet I have even done it, and I am by no means a speeder. Will it get anyone's attention and do any good? I doubt it. Will it make Anthony sleep better at nights knowing he tried, probably.
There are more important things in life.
