Stopping distance is not an issue if you don’t need to stop in the first place. That means good road maintenance, no abrupt turns, properly protecting access

Stopping distance is not an issue if you don’t need to stop in the first place.
That means good road maintenance, no abrupt turns, properly protecting access (even from wild life, which can mean underpass for big animals), easy way out for people to go slow if they feel it won’t do it for them, frequent info panels in case anything happens.
Of course for all of that there needs to be an underlying safety culture.
