Kept so that I can post this as the proponents of traffic violence rail against lower speed limits in Petaluma: Wales’s 20mph speed limit has cut road deaths. Why is there still even a debate?

Yeah, but it only takes a few socially conscious Prius drivers to make *some* difference.

What surprises me is that people in Wales apparently care enough about the numbers on the speed limit signs to change their behavior in response. Where I live, the authorities tried to institute a 20 MPH speed limit several years ago, but one only remembers that this ever happened when stuck behind some unusually-conscientious Prius driver.
