  There's also the fact that if you get hit by the high moving wall called a pick-up or SUV, the person goes under the vehicle which is called a "frontover" (opposite of a backover for when a car backs over a person, often a kid). I'm not sure what it's called when you have a curved, low car hit someone and they go over the hood, but it's somewhate safer, especially at lower speeds. Speaking of which, designing streets so cars go 20 MPH makes collisions much safer compared to 30 MPH (or 40 MPH) which is highly fatal. https://www.tigard-or.gov/your-government/departments/community-development/transportation/20-is-plenty https://www.tigard-or.gov/your-government/departments/commun... Keep in mind that signs alone won't slow down cars.
