I may be accused of heresy, but I'd impose a minimum speed limit of (say)
10 mph on all roads to make sure that prams, cyclists who are walking with
their bikes, electric buggies etc are kept on the pavement where the
differential speed between them and pedestrians is less than between them
and cars in the road.

What about pedestrians on roads where there is no pavement?

Or preserved steam traction engines?
