    Speed limits don’t control how fast drivers go, road design does. If they want to increase safety they should make the roads narrow and curvy while adding bigger sidewalks and bike lanes.

    That’s like 18mph. That’s insanely slow unless the place is super dense. It would literally take me hours to cross my city alone at that speed.

      My neighborhood is 20mph and it costs me more concentration to keep it that low than cruise 25-30 and be on the lookout. Apparently concentration on riding my brakes is safer.
