Should 30 km/h be the default urban speed limit?

AI-generated summary, admin reviewed: This initiative proposed making 30 km/h the general speed limit in urban areas. Authorities could allow higher speeds on main roads where traffic safety and protection from noise permitted it. Supporters argued that lower speeds would prevent accidents, reduce noise and pollution and improve residential areas. Opponents argued that a nationwide default was too rigid, could slow traffic and public transport and would impose substantial costs on local governments. Swiss voters rejected the initiative.
