Should the government eliminate all traffic laws and rely on voluntary compliance?

Yes

No, and who in their right mind is even proposing such a thing?

Should eliminate all victimless laws, such as seat belt and airbag requirements.

No. However, there needs to be a higher priority put on driver's education. That education should focus less on factors of speed, and more on safe distances and lane use. In most fatal accidents, the critical factor is often not the speed itself, but rather the failure to maintain a safe following distance for the speed at which one is traveling.

No, but remove speed traps and traffic cameras, and increase the speed limits on highways/freeways.

No, this will dramatically increase the yearly rate of accidents and insight anarchy in the streets.

Not all traffic laws as some help such as stop signs and such, but I think speed limits are very outdated and cause more harm than good

No, but the police should focus more on addressing crime rather than fining people for traffic violations

No. But they shouldn't fine people who are traveling safely above the speed limit within a reasonable 10 miles over the speed limit.

No, many traffic laws are stupid, but there needs to be some order on the roads

Remove law enforcement from minor traffic stops. Change how LEOs interact with civilians.

No, except for speeding during morning and evening rush hours on a multi lane road

No, but eliminate fees for registration and inspection, and decrease fees, tickets, and re-education costs for minor offenses, parking tickets, and lateness.

No, but they should also streamline the current laws to reflect actual driver habits such as removing the current system of speed limits and implementing roads which inherently change the speed of drivers like in the Netherlands, remove sliplanes, right on red and similar dangerous habits as well change red lights to mandatory roundabouts through a system of slow renewal that eventually removes much of the road infrastructure in place of public alternatives.

No, only victimless infractions (belt, speeding without crash...)

No, this would lead to a significant increase in vehicular casualties.

No, but there are some laws that are definitely not important and should be removed.

No, but state governments should eliminate nonsense laws and concepts such as speed traps and mandatory quotas for traffic police

Not entirely, speed limits are necessary but some other stuff isn't. I think they should just increase the penalty if the speeding condition led to an accident.

Yes, but keep a record of broad reckless driving and a strike system so dangerous drivers can be limited

No, this will increase the rate of accidents and insight anarchy.

No, but there are some traffic rules that could be massively updated. Such as areas where the speed limit is 30 where a road that is just the same somewhere else in the state is 45-60+.

No, this will increase the rate of accidents, and possibly insight anarchy.

Maybe, but implementing better traffic calming design into roadway planning will be far more effective than either.

NO, but when the light is red, i should be able to go

No, but they should eliminate the majority of the traffic laws.

interstate speed limits should be increased to 75-85 mph. vehicles are much safer nowadays and are capable of cruising at much higher speeds. stricter lane laws such as those found on the german autobahn should be instituted on all interstate/U.S./state highways.

No, this will increase accidents, street violence and incite anarchy

Only laws that directly pertain to accidents where there is a clear victim. If there is no victim, then there cannot be a crime.

No, and local governments and police should receive more funding to enforce current laws

Less highway patrol and more focus on actual crime

the government should reduce the amount of traffic laws and eliminate redundant ones

No, reduce enforcement and implement Autobahn style speed limits.

Not eliminate all traffic laws but have certain instates remove speed limits in safe areas similar to the Autobahn.

No. Certain road safety laws are necessary, but others such as speed limits should be more lenient and act more as guidelines than laws.

no. what kind of question is this? traffic fatalities & pedestrian deaths are up ten fold. there needs to be stricter enforcement of all traffic laws & mandatory driver testing every 5 years to maintain a driver's license.

No, but they should adapt a European style traffic law enforcement system.

I think the traffic laws that are currently in place are good enough

No, but certain laws should be dismantled or rethought.

An alternative would be to implement a system like the German Autobahn.

No, Just eliminate speed limits on the interstate system(not surface streets.) and Allow bans on Bicycles(have to comply with same laws as cars) on roads that it would be a hazard.

No, this will increase the rates of traffic accidents and possibly insight anarchy.

This is a stupid question as most traffic laws are primarily enforced via voluntary compliance and the tort system.

No, and we should focus on comprehensive training and providing education to reduce traffic incidents on the road.

Keep all current laws, except for the interstate speed limit.

No, this will increase car accidents and insight anarchy.

No, but loosening of certain restrictions to be based on conditions of the road should be implemented.

No, but lower the current restrictions and remove speed limits. Also remove all tracking and goverment logging of private motor vehicles (not including buisness owned ie. Semis)

No, without traffic laws in place, chaos would ensue on the roads, the bad would outweigh the good, people don’t like to be responsible when they don’t have to be

No, but I would support eliminating speed limits on certain stretches of interstate highways.

Yes, but if death is caused by lack of control due to not being compliant then charged at higher crime.

MOST traffic "laws" should be eliminated and ONLY basic safety/as long as nobody is getting hurt, damaged or threatened then people should be left alone.

No, until the government finds private regulatory alternatives that can do the same job

No, traffic is already bad enough. Instead invest in public transportation, to mitigate traffic enforcement costs.

No, laws are needed for safety and not everyone does the right thing on their own when no one is watching.

Traffic law should be loosened, and determine by private law enforcement corporations and private corporations committees

I say get rid of the speed limits on some major highways

No, this should be left to the states to decide.

make an auto bome highway like rusha

no but there should only be laws on what affects others on the road

Cause that would sure go well no

No, but traffic laws are overly numerous

No, but their must be a disincentivization away from money and public workers, including police. Such as elimination payment on traffic tickets.

I feel that people should be able to choose their speed at times, but through towns, it should be regulated.

No, but local communities should be allowed to make their own traffic laws within their own territory.

no they need the safety of laws because people need to drive safe.

No, this will result in far greater motor vehicle damages and deaths

No. The idea is absurd and would serve the best interests of no one.

No, this would create chaos

just remove the speed limit on certain roads

No but they should adjust the standards to more realistic laws

just remove the speed limit

It determines what laws are in place.

The government can not eliminate all traffic laws since it’s been in place, we cannot go backwards. However, it is the governments job to understand the trade agreement in citizenship. Keep the rules in place but lessen fhe punishment

Just the speed limit on interstate highways.

no it keep you safe

Traffic laws should be state by state, to include imposition of driver’s licenses and corresponding requirements. This is not a federal matter.

No, but many laws should be rolled back.

They should remove speed limit laws. Safety of a driver should be their responsibility, and the consequences of their actions are deserved.

No, but drastically reduce the current number of traffic laws

Yes, except for drunk or reckless driving laws

Yes, but only on toll roads when people are traveling long distances. Then make them take an advanced drivers test to be able to be voluntary compliant.

no, but police cars should be sitting from a mile away from speed traps to prevent people getting pulled over while they are in the process of sitting down

No, but there should be lower driver ticket prices if the person is low income, vise versa for rich people.

They should be more in forced in some states and motorcycles should have less laws because if they ride a motorcycle they probably know what they are doing considering other drivers

No, people already ignore basic common sense laws and drive such action would further encourage such behavior

Traffic laws that do not endanger other drivers (car registration, insurance, seat-belt, etc.) should be eliminated.

No, this is easily the dumbest question that could have been asked, this will result in thousands of deaths and millions of dollars in damages.

To an extent. I think a certain level of laws could be removed safely. People sometimes react better to having less restrictions.

No, but the government should operate with respect to the Right to Travel (No licensing, mandatory insurance, or registration except in matters of commerce)

No, but escalation into a high speed pursuit in congested areas can increase safety issues for bystanders and officers should be mandated to use more caution.
