Road design, safety and Vision Zero
Man, I had a "Netherlands is remarkable" road safety moment the other day. We were visiting the COVID facility (testing and vaccination) which is basically a huge temporary structure. The parking area for this facility is all denoted with traffic cones because it is temporary. The roadway around the structure to the exit is a long straight section and despite it being a temporary facility they made chicains demarked with traffic cones for traffic calming.

Even temporary facilities have traffic calming!

And these weren't little either, someone in a ridiculous pickup that is so popular in Canada would struggle to navigate them without hitting any cones.
