This article talks a lot about child seats... And only mentions the important parts speed bumps, separation of traffic and requirements for driving licenses.
I like speed bumps, bus lock, and round abouts... These features are self-enforcing and violators are punished with swift justice.
When you run over a speed bump too fast, the good old laws of physics will meter out an immediate punishment :)
- briandear 9y agoHow about just enforcing the speed limit? Speed humps on a road designed for 30 often require slowing to 10. Clearly you have never driven or worked in an ambulance or in emergency services.
- jopsen 9y agoFair point... It's not great for emergency services. But it's great for residential neighborhoods, and city limits.
- berg01 9y agoI think you'll enjoy this 15 minute documentary on a particular bus trap in Stockholm: https://www.svtplay.se/video/17480166/sparviddshinder?info=visa https://www.svtplay.se/video/17480166/sparviddshinder?info=v... Much of it is in English since many of the victims are tourists. (I think this an excellent example of an anti-pattern.)
- nugi 9y agoI hate speedbumps in my sportscar. Under 20, I often scrape. I have found speeding to 40+ allows my suspension to soak it up rather than upsetting the chassis. They have effectively incentivised my speeding. So, with each "solution", a problem.
