Abba_S -“If you widened the roads you would need to confiscate a good part of the front yards of the houses on these roads. The owners would have to be compensated which will make it very expensive. Likewise barrier must be installed to protect the house from the speeding car should the driver lose control of his vehicle”
Not at all! All you would need is a few feet. And the government doesn’t have to put up any barriers!
