It starts with police actually enforcing traffic laws instead of turning a blind eye.

enforcement is not the best way to go. it’s been proven that only disproportionately effects drivers that were already likely to be profiled anyway. in order to change driver behavior there have to be physical changes to the roads, such as narrowing or speed bumps.

No more speed bumps this is lunacy. The ones on rochambeau just make people rip up smaller roads with worse visibility while punishing law abiding drivers but wearing down their car suspensions

We tried this. It is going to take a lot more.

Start with change the streets so it is really hard to drive too fast without scraping the precious vehicle.

Having some stop signs on the north side of Hope would help - crossing Hope anywhere between Rochambeau and Lippet Park is harrowing

No, the last thing we need is more police pulling people over for every little thing. It starts with educating the public
