Is Speeding a Problem in Horsham?

A Horsham firefighter believes that the township needs to address this issue.

Earlier this week on the Hatboro-Horsham Patch Facebook page, we posted a call for residents to reach out about any issues in Hatboro-Horsham that needed to be addressed.

One of the responses we received was from Anthony Vogel, a firefighter in Horsham, who wrote the following:

I live on Wynmere Dr in Horsham. They made the speed limit 25 a while back but no one listens. Lots of small kids are in the neighborhood and most recently a blind child and people race through the neighborhood like a race track. I believe if speed bumps are place in 3 perfect locations, it will stop these people from doing 40 around a tight curve with cars on both side and possibly hitting a child or adult. The township really needs to address this issue before it's to late!

What do you think? Are speed bumps and better signage the answer to this speeding problem? Let us know in the comments section below.
