Kanaev noted that the majority of road accidents have no direct correlation with speed.
“For example, the first is the oncoming lane.
Opposite - this, respectively, should be bumpers, physical separators between streams, where the speed is over 60 km / h.
The second is an accident at a pedestrian crossing.
Who interferes with making special mechanisms, devices, devices to reduce speed and warn that there is a pedestrian crossing ahead ... This is what needs to be done, ”the expert explained.
He noted that if you move at a speed of 40 km / h, "cities with a population of one million will stop at all."
Earlier, Vasiliev advocated the introduction of fines for drivers for exceeding the permitted speed by 1 km / h.
According to him, any person who exceeds the speed limit by 1 km / h is a traffic offender.
In November, Russian Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev said that the department was categorically opposed to lowering the free speed limit from 20 to 10 km / h.
