It's pretty easy to reduce road deaths, you just have to get people to slow down. Risk of death increases exponentially with speed. Unfortunately few people are actually on board with stricter enforcement of speed limits. Maybe increasing penalties for texting while driving would work similar to how DUI laws were increased a few decades ago?

There's so much that can be done with urban planning to slow people down. We build for speed, not slowness
