Unlike the comment on reddit saying this won't reduce crashes, I'm going to point out that it's not designed to. Road to zero is about recognising crashes will happen, this move is about reducing the damage when crashes inevitably occur.

That assumes they're actually making a mistake, instead of habitually driving too damn fast because they think they're more in control than physics is.

I think it's more likely to lead to people slowing down and not doing stuff like weaving in and out of traffic so they can keep going fast.

Whenever I feel like traffic is moving too slowly for me, I think about how long it would take me to walk instead. And then I chill out and enjoy my private climate controlled capsule and maybe turn up my music.
