The Masses need controlling
The first reaction of the so-called community is to ask for speed bumps and lower limits to be installed.
I've glanced over a bunch of your posts and I think I know where you are making your mistake.
You seem to think that responsible people are driving the cars.
This is ABSOLUTELY not the case.
I live on an unlit street with no speed bumps which T's at the end onto another street. My street is not a short cut. There's very little reason to drive down it.
However, every other night there's some dumbass teenager/twenty something gunning his engine down the road.
THAT's what speedbumps are meant to prevent. The dickheads who couldn't give a shit about endangering others.
Same thing with speed limits - the airhead on her cellphone who's digging through her purse while cruising at 30mph is going to do less damage to the rear end of my pickup when she slams into it than she would at 60mph.
Most of humanity is unfit to look at a car, let alone operate one. However, here in the US we're at virtually 1:1 for ownership.
Any stop gap measures are more than welcome

Re: The Masses need controlling
why not harshly punish dangerous and reckless drivers
Unfortunately, punishment doesnt deter action from people who dont use forethought
