I think a big part of the problem is policing it requires manpower. Distracted driving is the biggest issue today but it's also the hardest to police as they just can't put up cameras (yet) and start fining people on their phones while behind the wheel. They reduce the speed limits to 30 km/hr and leave unmarked police cars with photo radar and it will be a license to print money for the city. I expect it could lead to a bigger boon than the intersection cameras as few people are going to be able to handle driving 30 km/hr through non-playground zones.
