Becky Guy, who lives on Whittlesey Road on the B1040 near Thorney, Peterborough, said over the past five years about 10 cars have crashed into her garden or her neighbour’s.
Isn’t this a job for some reinforced concrete posts in the hedge?
If you want dead people instead of a damaged hedge, sure.
Better dead reckless drivers than a dead you hit by said drivers while in the garden.
A hedge doesn’t really have a lot of stopping power to save you from a ton of steel and plastic.
What an absurd thing to say! In what world would anybody be driving so fast into a hedge while parking that a collision might result in death?

I was fully prepared to admit my mistake but what you described is not at all what is happening. One does not park at 60 mph+
Becky Guy said her daughter and her dog are often in the garden
If the choice is between endlessly letting reckless drivers crash into your hedge and hoping that they don’t injure anyone else while waiting for the council to do its damn job and put a speed restriction up and running the risk of said reckless drivers sustaining more serious injuries then I think that in that imperfect world I might invoke caveat rector.
