Which standards are you referring to?
- Ensorceled 2y agoThey are literally referring to the "Dutch traffic engineering standards" when they say "Dutch traffic engineering standards"
- numerobis 2y agoWhat standards specifically? What is the solution to the problem that Dutch standards provide? Duh
- bb86754 2y agoIt’s an entire book length of material, but in short, for built up areas drivers are forced through street to design to be higher alert to their surroundings. EX: chicanes in the road, speed tables, brick roads, narrow streets, small/tight turn radius, no turn on red, etc. These all work together to make a system that is amongst the safest in the world for pedestrians, and by happenstance has the happiest drivers. Also, bike traffic and vehicle through traffic are separated on different networks, so a conflicts are minimized.
- Ensorceled 2y agoWhich requires a long and detailed answer that can be found by simply googling "Dutch traffic engineering standards" which leads you to an entire wealth of information.
