The ITE Safe System framework provides important context for the focus on safe speeds within a Safe System approach. For vulnerable users’ speed is a determining factor in survivability – a human’s chance of surviving being struck by a vehicle increases from 20% at 40 miles per hour to 60% at 30 miles per hour to 90% at 20 miles per hour. Reducing speed in the presence of vulnerable users is a key Safe System strategy. Approaches include: •Physical roadway designs (width, horizontal alignment) to limit free flow speeds, •Traffic calming treatments that induce slower speeds, •Traffic signal timing that minimizes high speed flow, •Traditional or automated enforcement that discourages speeding.
