Video shows a car clipping a parked car and flipping over, crashing into several other cars. There’s a jogger on the pavement a few metres away. Easily could’ve killed a pedestrian if they’d been between the cars or trying to cross further along. Apparently the local council won’t even lower the speed limit.
literally first paragraph
From the videos, I think the people in crashes are not going at 40…lowering the limit will do nothing. Forcing the drivers to slow down with street design is the only way.
Lowering limits does change behaviour on its own, but I agree that proper traffic calming would be best.
Second paragraph, usually such details are either in the first paragraph or in the second half… At least always the paragraph you don’t look in.
40mph is also too much for that road IMO. Anything with mixed usage really shouldn’t be above 50km/h / 30mph. Inner city where you often share the lane with other traffic types like bikes? 30 kmh/h
