#KeelingCurve accelerating through #VisionZero: 40% of the #cars on that block exceeded the #speed limit...
But by DDOT’s standards, this level of #speeding was insufficient to require #trafficcalming, particularly in the face of uncertain #community support.

Turns out he has 86 #violations since 2015, including 24 #school zone #speeding violations. How is this person still able to #drive ? Seriously. At what point have you proven that you’re incapable of the maturity required to operate a vehicle?

One question though: Haven't they ever heard of the speed bump...?

The attitude of many #car drivers is just appalling:
"Just because you’re driving somewhat above the posted speed limit, as pretty much all of us do all the time, doesn’t mean you’re driving dangerously. It doesn’t mean we should have to pay a penalty."
For those people I want MORE SPEED CAMS AND TRAPS. Please #nyc, do it! And the Yankees are great!
What a loser. Thinks he'd be over the law because he created an HBO show.

So David Simon of #TheWire fame got a speeding ticket in #NewYorkCity. This open letter in response to his complaining is everything American public discourse needs to become. A spirited defense of rules and common values that promote collective well-being, against that pervasive libertarianism sold to us by #neoliberal order.
“Anyway, next time take the train, asshole.”

Safety technology to slow down reckless drivers
In-Car Tech Would Force NYC’s Worst Drivers to Slow Down Under New Proposal
"Cars and trucks can act as weapons when used recklessly, and people who have repeatedly demonstrated they will endanger lives while operating vehicles should be limited in how fast they can drive."
"We are going to literally force you to slow down...Dangerous drivers with at least six speeding tickets in a single year would be forced to install speed-limiting devices in their vehicles under new state legislation."
"We know that the [technology] exits, we know that it works to slow down traffic, and now we are saying that we should apply this across the board to the worst of the worst drivers."
https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2023/08/02/tech-force-nyc-drivers-slow-down
The NSW carnage:
"Each year, speeding contributes to about 41% of road fatalities and 24% of serious injuries. Almost 135 lives are lost and 1141 people are seriously injured."

Australian drive-on beaches
When the beach is just another highway
"As more and more people have been purchasing four-wheeled drives and SUVs, it has frankly, in many cases, just become dangerous for South Australian families to be going down onto the beach when there are people driving at all sorts of speeds, putting lives at risk"

"In 2021, 1,116 people died on Australian roads. Of those, 65% were from regional and remote communities and more than 40% were aged between 17 and 39.
The Australian National University reported the estimated cost of a fatal crash between 2016 and 2020 to be $3.2m."
The provision of active and fossil fuel free infrastructure could reduce such a carnage. But no, it's always more roads!
