To make it worse, it's a pretty narrow street with no sidewalks and a daycare. I've seen so many close calls there.

One of the neighbours tried to start a petition to get the city to put in speed bumps because of the danger to kids in the area, but you'd be surprised how many refused to sign stating that they don't have kids and therefore don't care.
Experienced this on the weekend out in Surrey visiting a coworker of my wife's. The road was just packed with cars from illegal suites and people fly down that road. I saw a guy at least doing 70 as we were outside chatting. They don't let their kids play out front because of how nuts it is. You can barely back out of a driveway it is so packed and busy.
