Tell city council: A lower speed limit in Chicago will save lives
Last year, a staggering 1,200 lives were tragically cut short on Chicago’s streets due to fatal car crashes.
Among those 1,200 deaths, excessive speed was a critical factor in nearly half of those devastating incidents.
With higher speeds, the likelihood of severe injuries or fatalities skyrockets.
Because of the role speed plays in car crashes, lowering the speed limit even a small amount can have an outsized effect on road safety.
