Adrian Kent paid for speedbumps to be installed on the private road where he lives in Whitstable, Kent, to tackle reckless drivers that left his grandchildren too scared to play outside.
A man paid £8,000 to turn his road into the 'shortest in the country with speedbumps' in a pursuit to crack down on reckless drivers in his area.
So along with a neighbour, Mr Kent paid £8,000 for new speedbumps to be put along the just over 100-yard stretch of road. The 65-year-old split the bill with another resident for tarmac and speedbumps to be laid on the previously dirt road, which homeowners are responsible for maintaining. He said: "It's quite funny when you think about it. Maybe I could enter the Guinness Book of Records."She said: "We live close-by and have witnessed, prior to these changes to the road layout, two or three occasions where delivery drivers have nearly hit the children from Swalecliffe Primary School as they walk home. The road was often used as a cut-through and was becoming more dangerous by the day.
He added: "People were happy to tear down it at 30mph to 40mph. A neighbour's car window was smashed by stones flicking up and some of the stones are quite big.
