Drivers Complain Raised Crosswalk Slows Vehicles

Every driver that complains when going too fast and damaging his car on such a speed reducer should loose his license for a couple of weeks to get a clear head again.

How bad people are driving is kind of a mirror of the current society. I‘m annoyed by people thinking the world belongs only to them. No buddy, other people have the same rights.

Did you watch the video? The raised-ness of the crosswalk is practically invisible. This wouldn't be news if it weren't confusing the shit out of all the locals. When's the last time you saw a damn speed bump in the local paper headlines?!

Maybe instead of assuming other people are idiots, just accept that people are people. There's probably a better solution here.

That’s a lot of vitriol.

Based on the photos of the cross walk it looks like it isn’t clearly labelled. There’s 3 signs you have to read in order to know what is going on. There should be a sign giving drivers an estimate of the appropriate speed, or something similar.
