Already posted in the thread and in the Notice of Motion. The city’s pedestrian strategy report in 2016 found that 50 per cent of all pedestrian collisions (and 83 per cent of collisions for small children) occur on residential and collector roads within communities.

However you need to know the brake down between collector and residential as collector roads are not affected by this motion. So if we are down to 180 possible accidents that could be prevented each year. If you cut that in half again you are down to 90. Then factor in that 20% are hit and run and you aren't changing those peoples behaviour by change the law and you are down to 75.
So you want to waste 700 years of Calgarians lives to prevent 75 accidents which we know that the majority occur at below 30km/hr already.
