There's no way a car going that fast can stop when a kid darts out from a driveway to chase a ball or is riding a bike and wobbles a little. I've yelled numerous times at drivers to slow down, only to be me with blank stares.

Hmmmm. They are going 35-40 MPH. What's the speed limit? Reducing the limit from 25 (which you suggest people are ignoring) to 15 MPH will accomplish what?
