    There’s also the aspect of designing roads in a way that discourages driving dangerously, like in the Netherlands. Raised crosswalks, speed bumps, narrowed lanes, physical barriers, etc.

    If we make completely straight, flat roads with wide lanes going through neighborhoods, people are just going to drive down them fast because that’s what subconsciously feels like the correct speed.

      And those preventive measures as well indeed - on top of those cameras because some assholes don’t learn unless they get hit in the bank.
