This considers the idea of removing government-imposed traffic laws and relying instead on individual responsibility for road safety. Proponents argue that voluntary compliance respects individual freedom and personal responsibility. Opponents argue that without traffic laws, road safety would significantly decline and accidents would increase.

No, but traffic violations should not purely exist to generate revenue. Speeding outside a school bad. Speeding on a NSL moor road, fine.
@9N6RTQX6mos6MO
Take away the unnecessary traffic laws such as the new 20mph roads as this is more likely to cause accidents. As well as parking situations if it’s safe to park you should be allowed to. However maintain the important traffic laws such as national speed limit etc.
@9P8JWMS5mos5MO
Stop manufacturing / allowing for vehicles that can exceed 70 mph / better speed limiting technology that doesn't allow users to exceed speed limits.
@9P6G5MR6mos6MO
Yes, the traffic laws aren't working to the best of their ability. The amount of road users there are and with the idiocy and laziness of the general public, we should get rid of the traffic laws and leave it to natural selection.
@9QMY2XS5mos5MO
no but speed limits should be raised and legalise not wearing a seatbelt and using a mobile phone whilst driving.
@9PMTVRP5mos5MO
Used to be more based on common sense. Get drivers to read the Police - Roadcraft manual and be tested on it - not the 'Highway Code'.
@9PY4DQS5mos5MO
Literally no one can drive by the rules anyway after they pass their test. This is well known. So I think if they were to stay it should be you have a license for x amount of time before you renew it
@9NJ22YY6mos6MO
NO just get rid of 20mph (unless outside a school) and put all Motorways back to National speed limit of 70mph.
