That’s a poorly designed road, that’s why. Only highways should be fast because there is no expectation of cyclists or pedestrians being remotely close to those vehicles.
And those 3 lane roads, at least around here, have poor pedestrian and cycling infrastructure beside them, so they really do need to be much slower than they are.
Reduce enforcement on highways and increase enforcement on residential roads. The Autobahn gets that right: if you’re only threatening yourself and other drivers, then the responsibility is on yourself and other drivers. If you’re threatening pedestrians without a ton of metal surrounding them, fuck off.
I don’t know. I had to use the highway today, and people drive like your life doesn’t matter. Excessive speeding, dangerous lane changes, going too slow, etc.
I think automatic enforcement of highways should be more common, and it would help cut down on racing, too.
Something like 60% of car-related fatalities are single-vehicle and something like 25% of car-related fatalities are inflicted on pedestrians and cyclists.
