Pessimise roads because people cannot stick to basic rules? That's silly. Instead, take away their ability to drive if they can't do it responsibly.

If an ambulance has to go that way, you'd want that to be able to drive fast.

Also, people can drive poorly on any type of road.

I'm fine with the ambulance driving safely, rather than causing more emergencies from driving too fast.

If you care about the time to get to an emergency room, get hospitals closer to people?

People can drive poorly on any road, but they'll do it more if the road guides them to misbehave.
