EDIT: since apparently a bunch of people woke up with the wrong foot this morning or forgot to check the group they’re in:

This is a joke. Do not steal or vandalize speed enforcement cameras (or anything else for that matter). That’s against the law and you will likely get arrested.

If you’re addicted to crack or any other drugs, please seek professional help.

      Why can’t you have one-way streets in a rural area?

      Cost. That separate road means buying land from someone and turning it into road. Do they have one way roads for rural schools in Germany? Because I looked at a few Grundschule in Bavaria on Google maps and didn’t see any.

      How does that translate to "block the street for buses? If a street fits two pickups it fits two buses.

      He said small pickup truck such that two small pickup trucks could not pass without needing to maneuver.

      A bus is .5 meters wider than a pickup truck.

      It is cheaper and more convenient to have a speed camera that is active only during school hours.

          First hits from list on Google

          Alois-Kober-Grundschule

          Grundschule Niederstotzingen

          Grundschule Pfaffenhofen

          Grundschule Lichtenau

          Grund- und Mittelschule Wittislingen

          Seyfried-Schweppermann-Schule Kastl, Klosterburg 6, 92280 Kastl, Germany

          All located off a main road in the same style as US schools. Just like US schools, many have their own driveway that goes off the main road to the front of the school. (In the US this school driveway is one way.) It’s the main road that has the speed camera for US schools. It is the main road that the original poster I replied to suggested making impassable to two way bus traffic.

              Is Bergstrabe one way? Does it connect to more than just the school? That’s a main road. Does it have speed bumps? It is not a highway which was mentioned in the first reply when someone asked if US schools are on a highway.

              There are residential houses on the same road as American rural schools. Look at the map of Comer elementary which is what this entire thread is about.

                  If you want to use the definition of a main road being one that goes directly from one town to another that’s fine. In the US that’s called a highway.

                  No matter what you call it, the larger road that goes near a school is the same in Germany and the US. Both have two way traffic.

                  And no there’s no speed bumps why would there if the road is narrow enough and people naturally drive slow enough, there’s no through traffic, the residents don’t race on it, etc.

                  Given that it is residential that connects to two other roads, it has through traffic. It would need to be a dead end to not have through traffic. The road isn’t so narrow that busses can’t pass each other. It’s why I linked one school that has a labeled public bus stop.
