    @cm0002 They should use devices to slow ALL cars. The devices should force all cars to stay under the speed limit and the speed limit should be 30 kilometers per hour.

      Disagree. There are times when an excess of speed is necessary to get into a safe space. Such as crappy drivers of bigger cars or trucks trying to block others. Or not being safe in other ways.

      Force cars to not be able to go quicker than a brisk walk. Force everyone to either walk or, if they are in a hurry, ride a bike. Your commute just went from a thirty minute drive to a 5 hour bike ride? Sucks to be you. Can’t afford a place closer to work? Sucks to be you. Planning on visiting relatives in another state and can’t afford air fair and other options, trains or buses, don’t go there? Sucks to be you, set aside a week to get there. An elderly relative is flying into the closest airport, with is now a 4 hour drive away, well…better plan accordingly.
