There are other factors to consider like what effects lowering the speed limit has on the economy by adding significant tines to all trips being made.You also assume that drivers are obeying the reduced speed limits. That is only true when they have no choice due to traffic congestion. Otherwise they will continue to drive at what they deem is a reasonable speed in most instances. The idiots who drive at ridiculous speed and cause most of the deaths that make the news will not be deterred by an artificially low speed limit because most will not obey. If you drove you would see how everyone travels faster than 25 mph when they can. (I even saw a DOT construction vehicle speeding on the BQE.) . Careless drivers making turns also will not be affected by a lower speed limit. |
