On certain streets where there is a stretch of road without a stop sign or a light, motorists cruise down in speeds in excess of the village limits.

Down Westbury Avenue last week, a Nassau County Police speed monitoring device was placed, recording motorists speeding in excess of the 30 mile per hour limit.

Other roads also have problems with speeding vehicles such as Union Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. There are main roads with lights that still don't prevent people from speeding such as Jericho Turnpike.
