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.

    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.

      That’s a main road.

      No it isn’t:

      a large road that goes from one town to another:

      And yes you also see residential buildings on main roads. The reason this is a residential and not main road is due to its size and position away from through-traffic. It’s a road where you have a quick look and then just cross, main roads are of the “eh I can look but I probably need to get to a crossing to get across” territory.

      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.

        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.
