What the petition asks
I would more help and support from you. I have wrote to highways, TFL, Met police and they are all pushing the but. Something need to change along this road before someone gets killed. People speed and drive dangerously along the road.
I would like your help as I'm not getting help from no one else. Dartford road is so dangerous, there is a bus stop that is 2 houses up from the main spot where people keep crashing. There has been two accidents in the last 3 weeks.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
Traffic safety measures are the responsibility of the relevant local authority, in this case Bexley Council, not the UK Government or Parliament.
