If there's one thing I've learned from urbanist YouTube videos, it's that drivers don't base their speed based upon posted speed limits, they base their speed on how comfortable they feel on a given roadway. You can't just tell people that what was an arterial yesterday is now an alley. You have to physically change it into an alley.

Whenever I drive in the sunset, I'm blown away with how unnecessarily wide all of the streets are, how it encourages drivers to go 30+ when they should be going 20, and how few protected bike lanes exist taking advantage of all the extra asphalt. They could take even just a couple streets, convert them to be narrower, calm traffic, and create safer spaces for pedestrians and bikers all in one go.
