If we are onsite watching cars go past I would say 50% are over 5mph but not many are over 10. I think people just dont realise/focus on their speed or maybe they just cant drive. First gear would be a better sign IMO and easier to enforce?
I cant realistically see that a warden could do much with an anecdotal ''I saw car XYZ 123 going past my caravan at more than 5mph this morning''

Me neither.
Also not helped when the wardens drive their tractors around at a similar speed to the cars.

Agree with your points but, on the last one, the warden could go and have a quiet word with the offender and remind him of the speed limit.

Why do people who have a problem with something they see on site whine about it on here and not go and see the warden !he is responsible for site rules ,if you get no joy then speak to H/O
CT is getting a bit tedious with people moaning about a car going to fast or a flapping flag or someone's fairy lights keeping them awake , get on with your holiday and tell us about the good points

Speeding on campsites is downright dangerous. It will never stop however unless the culprits are dealt with severely.
Other caravanners snitching to the warden staff about others speeding after the event , achieves nothing.
The warden staff need to control what happens on their site by monitoring site traffic-----. When they catch someone speeding, They should take the offender to task, then report that member to the HO where a decision should be taken to cancel that person's membership.
Once a few members have been kicked out of the CC, it will focus the minds of the rest.
This warden's discretion on the enforcement of CC on-site rules is counter productive. The rules are there for a reason ---- Wardens Must Enforce Them !!!!
