It’s stuff you don’t really think about like the visual width of the road and long straightaways that let you detach from the dangers of speeding. It’s not just main arterial roads. Traffic calming can and should, arguably more than anywhere else, be employed in those back neighborhood roads as well.
There are actually a lot of ways to slow down cars beyond asking nicely with signs. And it’s not just speed bumps.
The way we design our roads psychologically encourages speeding. Shitty people are out there but road design is important too.
I have a video on the tip of my tongue that I’d like to link, demonstrating this, but I’m too lazy to look it up right now. Maybe later.
Looks like a copy/paste bot. These have been around for a while. It’s a copy of someone else’s comment on the video.
Try strattera. It’s not for everyone and it takes a bit of ramp-up but when it works it’s really awesome.
