With the 25 mph speed limit traveling times became longer and producing unnecessary traffic making streets even more dangerous. Many safe motorists will receive speeding tickets based on it is unrealistic to drive 25 mph. New York City knows that traffic flows above 25 mph as a result an increase of police enforcement and speed cameras will produce revenue for the city .The mayor of New York City Bill de Blasio will do whatever ever it takes to make motorists misserable and want motorists not to drive.

Signing this petition will show mayor Bill de Blasio that New Yorkers want to continue to drive and that we are feed with the default 25 mph speed limit.The extortion of revenue from motorists has to stop now!

This speed limit is rediculous. It's not making anyone safer and only making traffic worse. Also it's nothing more than a money grab for speed cameras.

I am a commuter that uses the express bus, and my commute has doubled since Vision Zero went into affect. Transportation overall has been more unreliable than ever, and this policy is the main culprit. Vision Zero should be repealed and I will be contacting my elected officials to advocate for such action.
