I doubt there are lots of kids running around on roads that have traffic lights. Doesn't really matter of course, I just hate that line of reasoning that most people have.

You hate the line of reasoning that says you shouldn't drive unusually fast because you might kill someone? It doesn't have to be a kid you're worried about; children are just the clearest example of why you should drive carefully.

Incidentally, there are many, many neighborhoods with narrow streets, traffic lights, and families/children recreating outside.

Yes, I hate pretty much any line of reasoning that is ridiculous. I'm not saying driving excessively fast is a good idea, but it's got nothing to do with children getting knocked around like bowling pins.

How many children have you seen hit by cars? How many have your friends seen? Your friends friends? Now divde that 0 by the number of people you've seen driving too fast.
