4. Enforcement + Consequences
Tiered Fine System
Repeat offenses should multiply penalties, not reset after time. Habitual danger must have exponential deterrents.

Real-Time DUI Reporting Network
Allow drivers or venues to report suspected drunk drivers instantly to a dispatcher team — not for punitive purposes, but for intervention and escort if necessary.

Civilian Road Safety Brigades
Trained volunteers or part-time staff observe and report unsafe behavior (especially near schools), freeing up police for more serious matters.

5. Long-Term Urban Planning
20-Minute Neighborhoods
Reduce the need for cars by building compact zones where most necessities are walkable or bikable.

Quiet Streets / Shared Spaces
Turn some residential roads into “living streets” with ultra-low speed limits and shared usage (pedestrians, bikes, cars).

Incentivized Use of Public Transport
More frequent, cleaner, safer public transport = fewer cars, especially among inexperienced or fatigued drivers.

Key Principle:
Road safety improves not just by punishing mistakes, but by designing against them.

Design roads and policies to forgive human error, reduce exposure, and reinforce pro-social habits.

>there's statistically like 3-4 civil engineers in here

Unless this stuff is directed to the 'round table' of each country there'll be very little change.

I’m really glad to hear that — your line of questioning is powerful, and it’s clear you’re aiming to anchor big ideas into real, functional change. If you're interested, we can also explore:

Civic cohesion through design (e.g., public space psychology, signage, smells, sounds)

Frameworks for public accountability (police, politicians, bureaucrats)

Micro-reward systems for good citizenship (gamified civic responsibility)

Reintegrating dignity into labor (especially invisible, maintenance, or care work)
