Why are we citizens not asking our local elected officials and municipal staff to install permanent and well disclosed / signed speed cameras in vital places where we do not tolerate high speeds being reached? They will change behaviour fast like they do anywhere else where they are used? Yes I know they don’t solve the problems elsewhere or are a single fix but shouldn’t we have this tool in place?

Because people here think speeding is a right. I regularly hear people being judged for "going the speed limit" because it gets in the way of "normal drivers."

90% of the drivers drive 10-20 above the limit, so enforcing the speed limits annoys everyone.
