My "clueless" suggestion was to try to mitigate your "what if". I have no qualms about putting in speed bumps, narrowing the lanes and NOT provide a passing lane for emergency vehicles. You can use physical, controllable barriers to work within the same radio controlled infrastructure that already exists in many places that emergency vehicles use to communicate with traffic signals. There are retractable bollards, or even gates that can prevent normal access to the passing lane if you INSIST on a passing lane and preventing assholes.
Slowing down for a couple speed bumps will not significantly impact emergencies in most cases. If you have /data/ that demonstrates otherwise, please provide it.
This ain’t about you. It’s safer to have physical barriers to slow people down for the school and the community. Some people might be okay getting a fine whilst speeding through a camera monitored area.
A few speed bumps won’t affect the outcome of an ambulance or fire truck. It is not safe for them or the community for them to be going much more than the speed limit. If you really, really think it’s an issue, put an emergency vehicle passing lane of some sort like you have for people to keep going while a car tries to turn left
Damn. I don’t know why I read through this when I’m supposed to be sleeping and am not really into knives but this is really well written. It feels like one of those sneakerhead “how to catch a fake Jordan” videos. Very nice
…. So Charlie’s angels?
