    I think it really depends. Often times the roads existed before the people. If they wanted to live near a 50-80km roadway, that’s their choice.

    I’m so tired of watching speed limits creep down and people continually crying about speeding when the issue is attentiveness and awareness.

    IMO people not signaling intent and running trains through yellow/red lights to make left turns are FAR more dangerous than people going 15-20 km over the limit down straight highways with little traffic. Oh, and people who camp in the passing labe and force people to undertake to get around them.

    As for pedestrians, it’s people standing on the curb and crossing streets with their heads down on their phones and headphones on. What happened to the rule of crossing as quickly and safely as possible, and paying attention all around your as your cross?

    We should also be putting fault in vehicle manufacturers who continue to produce complex touchscreen-based infotainment systems.
