Our complex currently has an 8km speed limit posted at the main entrance to our complex before it branches to the various cul de sacs.
We also have the exact wording as per by-law 7 that Cosmo quoted above. While the by-law may sound draconian, the intent is clear, young children should not be riding bikes, scooters, skateboards on the driveways and certainly not without any adult supervision. Some of these children are under five and have undeveloped road sense. They are also not wearing any helmets.
Transport for NSW takes child safety seriously enough to spend taxpayers money on driveway safety campaigns. Their website states that 6 children have been killed and 15 seriously injured on driveways since 2013.
Are there any liability issues around the OC ignoring the children riding their bikes, etc on our driveway.
