Quaker Hill on East Main and now that the school year is starting, at Melville School on West Main.

and......maybe our local police should set an example of obeying the speed limit

Speed camera's should be used on both main roads. Police can't be every where. We should be taking advantage of technology that slows traffic with out wasting man power.

I agree with Mr. Souza that we should be using technology to combat the 55-65 mph Massachusetts drivers on both east and west main roads. My brother lives in Arizona where they use cameras, and it works beautifully to reduce speeding on residential roads. A picture of the vehicle is taken when speeds become excessive- 15 or more above the speed limit, and it is recorded and documented. Tickets are then mailed out to offenders. Technology is an excellent solution for this increasingly more dangerous problem in Portsmouth. Let's utilize it!

Middle Road! Middle Road! Middle Road!!!!! Anywhere on Middle Road!

East main road NEAR and between the police station and Clements!!!!! Ridiculous how fast people drive! I personally would love to see a speed bump put in!!!

the traffic cams are awful. they only slow down the traffic and make it more congested. You will no longer be able to make left turns on a yellow light etc. when traffic is heavy. You can't be in the intersection or it gives you a ticket. It happened to me driving an old car with slow acceleration. by the time I got to the intersection the light went from green to yellow and I got a ticket for doing something I always thought was legal. the light does not have to be red to get a ticket. the speed limits are 35 can you imagine everyone going 35 24/7 on east main? travel times would increase 30%. I've said this since I moved to New England (extremely different driving behaviors than the south) - raise the speed limits to reasonable limits and ENFORCE them. It's crazy how the speed limits are so low and no one obeys them. why have them?

Our local police are THE BEST. I have only called them on two occasions and both times they took my calls seriously and were in our neighborhood within minutes! They are true public servants.

Another area is Park Ave from East Main thru Island Park.. The prblem with cameras is that the owner of the vehicle is ticketed, not the driver. If a police officer stops a vehicle, it's the driver who gets ticketed, not the owner neccessarily.

In front of Aquidneck Island Christian Academy.

Quaker Hill needs not a speed camera. It would pay for itself in a matter of months!

How about worrying about more serious "crimes" rather than speeding. Everyone drives over the speed limit but as soon as you see a cop or know of where a camera or trap is everyone slams on the brakes creating more problems than if everyone kept right on going. I see more serious traffic problems with old people who can't keep a car in one lane, or drive where they want without pulling over to the slow lane.

How about a "No right on red" at the bottom of Hedly on West Main? Don't know how many times some idiot has cut out from Hedley in front of me during peak traffic times, because I don't tailgate the car in front of me. It could even have a "...between the hours of..."

MIDDLE ROAD!!!!!

Tallman Avenue (Hathaway Elementary)....School buses speed up & down this street every morning & afternoon during the school year (with no sidewalks and kids walking to school)

Hedly Street. Cars, trucks, freight, etc drive way too fast on Hedly despite the 25mph posted residential speed limit. Not only do we have to deal with speeders, but the folks who don't secure their trash in the trunks/beds of their vehicles, result being the bumpy road bounces some of it out. I am forever picking up other people's trash from my yard because folks don't secure their garbage before heading to the transfer station.

Boyds Lane from East Main Road to Park Ave intersection! The speeding is continuous, both cars and motorcycles, all day, all night. I rarely see any speed patrolling in the area. And for us who live in the Valhalla area, we don't need to "see" the speeders, we can hear them very well.........

Bristol Ferry Road is another good spot. This and East/West Main Roads should be changed to one lane in each direction as Turnpike was done. These four lane roads are so outdated that they really are not wide enough for this amount of traffic and size of vehicles. Having the four lanes only encourages people to speed past the others. If changed to the two lanes (with either left turn lanes at lights or a center turn lane) the speed could be raised to a more reasonable limit. It's pretty scary driving now!

Speed cameras are not currently legal in Rhode Island. Guaranteed under the 14th amendment, the right to due process guarantees anyone accused of a crime the right to face their accuser. When you are accused of violating the law based on a picture who is your accuser? When a police officer gives you a ticket, that ticket is thrown out if the officer does not show up at your hearing. I believe the reason for this is because without the officer the accused can not question there accuser as to the accuracy of what they have been accused of.

why don't we all just ride bicycles and horses and go Forrest Gump? Worried about when it snows real bad? Ever seen the movie Balto?

Anyone who stops…when they have the right of way…to let another car make a left turn. It happens (to me) at least daily. Is it a Rhode Island thing? I’m not originally from here and have lived in several areas around the country. Nowhere does it more than here. Please stop it people.

McCorrie lane is a speedway!

route 24 before the bridge construction and park ave some girl with a late model black impala is always speeding over there so many kids she drives like speed limits don't apply
