Safety Issue...WSJ delivery person driving too fast
 

A month ago I contacted the Sumter Co. Sheriff's office, which apparently was of no benefit, my street is still plagued with a Wall Street Journal delivery person that drives far in excess of the posted 15mph speed limit. The delivery person is a young female driving a tan 2011 Chevy HHR. I cannot read the license plate because she drives too fast to read it and the license plate has a faded plastic cover which obscures the plate. For all those walking between 6:30 am and 7:00 am in the Village of Caroline be ware of this driver.

Call the WSJ, and tell them you want to complain about one of their contractors, if they start to blow you off explain they will be named in the lawsuit.

Perhaps a little more details might help.

Where do you live that the speed limit is 15 mph? I’m assuming you’re in a villa? If so, those roads are not maintained by the county, therefore the sheriffs department would not be able to enforce a speed limit.

it is frustrating that so drivers travel faster than they should on our streets....I'd write to the Publisher of the WSJ and also to whomever is in charge of circulation for central FL...word will trickle down

I live in a villa where the posted speed limit is 10 mph. It is almost impossible to comply with it. It reminds me of the parking garage at a mall up north where the speed limit was 5 mph. I heard that one of those mall cops stopped a lady and said, "Ma'am, do you know how fast you were going? She said no, and he said you were going 7 in a 5 mph zone!"

There's not a single person in the Villages that obeys that posted speed limit..Even community watch

You’re kidding right? EVERYbody goes over 15 miles hours

Parking lots here are 5 MPH. NObody goes 5 MPH in parking lot vehicles idle at 7 to 8 MPH or faster if you got the A/C on.. besides it hard to even measure speed at 5 MPH.

Wow. Overreact much?

Not even the Sheriff or Police obey speed limts here.

Ups, FedEx, USPO truck, think 45 in a 30 is the normal. And if they can floor it 5 car length back to beat the already merging carts, they get frogger points

They don’t have to, who going give them ticket?

get a radar detector -- then you can really play cop

I would be more concerned about the line of cyclist that blow though stops signs and intersections

I also have noticed a car traveling far in excess of the speed limit in Largo. It's always dark when it comes by. I was told by a neighbor this week that it is the WSJ delivery person. Seems awfully dangerous to me for anyone walking their pet. I also see UPS and Fedex speeding but you can see them because it's light and can get out of their way.
