By having people go slower when the make mistakes, poor judgement, disobey rules-whatever, the consequences wont be as bad. I think you will find this is why lowering the suburban street limit to 50km/h has been such a success.
Many just would never have considered slowing for an intersection as something to do, just as many never thought of slowing down in suburban streets or outside schools, but make it a legal requirement and most people do come to the party.

What difference will it make, arent they already watching their speedos instead of the road to make sure they dont exceed the present limit? wasnt that what you were saying in your last rant.
