Police and Crime  Commissioner David Lloyd wants volunteers to sign up to the Community DriveSafe scheme.

The scheme sees fully-trained volunteers stand at the roadside monitoring ‘the speed of passing  vehicles, using speed  display equipment that informs the driver of the speed they are doing.

Motorists that exceed the limit of the road are sent an advisory letter, and can even be visited by a police officer if they offend regularly.

There are 32 such schemes nationwide.
