I WISH to place on record my thanks to the police who recently carried out a crackdown on antisocial, speeding and drunk motorists. This is a problem which has been going on now for some time on the Flowers Estate and I'm delighted with the police effort.

I hope that further crackdowns will follow as this will send out a strong message that such behavior will not be tolerated and indeed go a long way to reassure residents.
