Thank you for all your input. I know it's nothing to start a war over. My main concern is that even if I do slow down it won't be enough for her and she will still call the police. Or if someone else flies through here she'll call the cops and say "oh by the way, that guy in the red Saab speeds through here all the time too". She's going to be watching me even more now, I'm sure, and heaven-forbid one day I'm driving through here not realizing I'm going a little fast and she'll be on the phone to the police.
Although I understand that someone speeding through a neighborhood can be a concern, little kids and pet you know, I honestly believe there are ways of dealing with it without calling the cops every time. That's a waste of police resources and only a short term solution. More effective use of time can be spent going through a neighborhood association or local government to get traffic calming solutions installed which are more permanent. Or better yet, calmly talking to your neighbor about the issue and not getting your emotions involved would probably be more effective. When is the last time someone coming up to you all yelling, screaming, and acting irrational really got through to you?
Oh well, guess I'm just a stuck up Saab elitist!
Again, thanks for all your input, suggestions, and comments.
