Safer roads would mean a lot of environment destruction in such case (and very high cost, for the low traffic there). I would rather wear some hi-vis and keep narrow rural roads rural and narrow.
Yeah, I’m guessing you’ve never been anywhere properly rural. The distances involved are huge, and there are almost no pedestrians, as going anywhere but the neighbour’s place would mean walking for hours.
Putting in footpaths on every road would be an absurd amount of money.
Wanna go faster? Get your politicians to build you safer roads. Pedestrian lives are not expendable.

I don’t appreciate using the environment as a cudgel to entrench the expendability of human lives in the altar of the fast car.
I don’t think you’ve ever been to a rural area, have you?
Ooooo urban people and their weird “don’t kill pedestrians” ideas.

Are we still talking about rural and periurban Ireland?
With the highest road density?
