The Sustainable 60' Streets proposal was inspired by two “Drive Like You Live Here“ signs two families posted around the corner from me.  I love that these families prioritize safety and are asking drivers to slow down.  But such signs (and speed limit signs too) won't do much when the design speed of the street doesn’t match the desired speed. What do I mean by design speed?  Consider these two photos.  ​​
