In Germany the speed limit in Cities is 50km/h and in residential zones 30km/h, strong controlled with a lot of radar traps. If you exceed this they screw up your life, in case of hitting a pedestrian even possible with jail time. It cannot be confused by the lack of speed limit on some highway sections, that traffic regulations are very strict and controlled in Germany and any violation can be very expensive.
BTW: the mortality is around 50% if a car hits a pedestrian at 50km/h.
At 30km/h it’s around 3%.
So yeah, speed in centre ville counts!
Damn pedestrians killing drivers for driving quickly, won’t somebody do something?!
