As someone who travels locally on foot more often than by car, I'm not
too fussed about anything that means drivers drive more slowly.

Even it it makes it much more difficult to cross roads on foot?

In what way do slower cars make it more difficult to cross roads?

Because it makes it much more likely that there is a continuous
stream of moving traffic, with no gaps adequate for crossing.

Faster traffic means that cars appear round a corner with less time for
you to estimate their speed and judge whether there is time to cross.

I certainly find it easier to cross the roads in my area where the
traffic is moving more slowly.
