The book explores the evolution of traffic calming strategies, highlighting the shift from physical barriers to more nuanced approaches that incorporate psychological cues and community engagement. Initially, methods like speed bumps and median barriers effectively reduced speed but often created challenges for cyclists and emergency vehicles, leading to resentment among drivers. The narrative emphasizes the importance of creating safer, more livable environments by fostering a culture of shared responsibility rather than solely relying on enforcement and physical obstacles.
