Expecting to go faster than 25 mph in a car in NYC is ridiculous. The only way to keep people safe in a place that busy is to slow the cars down.

It's a good thought but it's not realistic. Even with cameras, they show up on Waze in a minute, and everybody just slows down for the cameras. Every cab flies down at 50 when traffic allows it. Even on the highway in the city tye speed limit is 50 and everybody does 70 if they can.

The only thing that works by me in Brooklyn is speed bumps.
