I've had the same experience as timun. People are notoriously poor judges of speed and feel the need to impose their perception on others as reality. The fact is that our neighbourhood is as safe as it's ever been and the idea that we have a problem with speeding through it is insane.

Now, people rolling stop signs or flat out blowing them because they don't care to wait for you, I've seen so many near incidents that I called 311 and asked them to evaluate if there was an argument for moving the stop sign in more and drawing a stop line. The guy ended up calling me and said he saw plenty of near-misses just in the fifteen minutes he was watching and he'll be taking his findings back to the Roads dept.

But every time someone bitches about speed enough to get photo radar or a lidar trap in here, they go away pretty much empty handed because the problem only exists in everyone's heads.
