Road safety measures: Is this a good or a bad idea? (see details)

1 Answer

Answer :

I agree with you. I can see it causing drivers to slam on their breaks and I could also see it desensitizing drivers to children actually being in the streets. I would imagine after driving over it for a while, people would just ignore it, but if for some reason an actual child was in that area, the driver may not differentiate right away and it would effect their reaction time (causing them to hit the child instead of being able to stop).
