An infuriated local man has taken to throwing raspberries at speeding cars by his local school.
Cameron Gibbons was “fed up” with seeing people driving illegally.
The carpenter, who claims there’s been a lack of action from the police, decided to take matters into his own hands.

Cameron, who’s in his 20s, filmed himself with a speed radar and a punnet of raspberries.
When a car sped past, they’d get the pink fruit thrown at their vehicle, racking up 8.8m views and 151,000 likes.
“My videos are inspired by people speeding in school zones extremely often and not enough policing around it,” Cameron told What’s The Jam.
“I’m going to continue posting my videos in the school zones, and we might move to construction zones, or other areas where speeding would be a big issue.”
In the video, Cameron is in front of a school zone, with a limit of 30kph.

He aims his speed radar at the car, which clocks in at 76kph, a full 46kph above the speed limit.
The carpenter then launches the punnet of raspberries at the speeding vehicle, sending them flying in the air.
All isn’t as it seems, however.

The Canadian actually filmed this video, among others, to raise awareness of what’s happening in his community – but these are actually staged.
Cameron, from Newfoundland, said: “My videos are all paid actors, and filmed on weekends when no school is taking place.
“I haven’t had any backlash as my videos are all staged and strictly for content purposes.”
Users have flocked to the comments to share their reactions.
One person said,” You are living MY dream. I love this.”
Another person added: “Bro, I can’t help but think – we’re throwing raspberries – IN THIS economy?”
Someone else commented: “Doing the lord’s work. I fantasise about doing this on my street.”
Viktor added, “Raspberries are expensive, man, throw rocks.”
Another person said, “Dude, throw an egg! Raspberries are expensive and delicious.”
