Ford is correct the speed limits should not be lowered.
Earlier this year the POLICE caused a traffic nightmare on a Friday night by removing a car from the DVP during the height of rush hour. Even the traffic reporters could not make sense of the stupidity.
People are distracted and that is what causes accidents.
Contrary to the laws of Ontario there is fault when an accident occurs and people need to own up to it. Everyone from pedestrian, cyclists and vehicles must pay attention and share the roads and the responsibilities that requires.
In Europe the roads are very narrow and everyone keeps their eyes open when in traffic. They do not have their heads buried in an tablet, or their headphones etc. A few people will have to die to prove this point since like distracted driving the GOVT is not focused on safety but revenue generating laws, like speeding.
