Safety campaigners have slammed rat-runners for risking the lives of young families in the Hollybush area. 

Local resident John Morrison has launched a campaign against speeding vehicles, as he fears an accident is waiting to happen. 

He claims commuters are at fault for using residential roads to bypass traffic lights on the A25 and the clogged up Riverhead roundabouts, and he has started up a petition. 

He is hoping Sevenoaks Town Council will help him come up with a solution to the problem. 

What do you think? Is Mr Morrison making a fuss about nothing, or are lives really at risk? What do you think can be done? Or are you a rat-runner who sees no alternative but to avoid the jammed up main roads?
