Vùng đất của Ferrari và Lamborghini có giới hạn tốc độ mới: 30 K.P.H.

bologna đã trở thành thành phố lớn đầu tiên của Ý áp đặt giới hạn trên hầu hết các đường phố, với lý do an toàn và dễ sống. Nhưng nó quá chậm đối với một số người: “Một thành phố phải di chuyển,” một tài xế taxi phàn nàn

When Bologna became the first major Italian city to impose a speed limit of 30 kilometers, or 20 miles, an hour, Luca Mazzoli, a local taxi driver, posted a sign in his cab warning passengers of the change.

Since the limit became enforceable (có hiệu lực) in mid-January, it has taken longer for Mr. Mazzoli to get from Point A to Point B, he claimed, meaning that he has picked up fewer passengers and has found himself stuck in traffic (kẹt xe) tromore often.

There is also the question of safety. Slower speeds (tốc đô chậm) made for fewer deaths, Mr. Lepore said, noting that there had been about 60 traffic-related fatalities (tử vong liên quan đến giao thông) in the greater Bologna area in 2022. “Given that, it’s hard to argue that the use of private cars should be without limits,” he said.

Bologna City Hall responded to the directive by noting in a statement that its speed limits were in line with existing national legislation (luật pháp quốc gia hiện hành). “Our priority is road safety and people’s quality of life,” the statement said.

In Bologna, there are indications (chỉ dẫn) that the limit is already having an impact. According to the city, traffic accidents were down 21 percent in the first two weeks of the new limit’s coming into force, compared with the same period last year, which included a fatality. None of the accidents this year have been deadly, according to a city statement issued last week.
