FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda There are renewed calls for the speed limit to be lowered to 40km/h in urban areas after 18 pedestrians were struck by cars and buses in Sydney in two days.
Three pedestrians were hit in separate accidents in Sydney on Wednesday, the Ambulance Service of NSW says.
The latest was a 65-year-old man, taken to hospital in a stable condition with facial injuries after being hit by a bus in Ultimo.
Greens MP and transport spokeswoman Cate Faehrmann said a car was twice as likely to kill someone if it was moving at 50kph rather than 40kph at the time of impact.
She said the lower speed limit would apply in built-up urban areas and shopping mall strips.
Some European cities had started reducing their speed limits to 30km/h in urban zones, Ms Faehrmann told Macquarie Radio.
There were seven accidents involving pedestrians in four hours in Sydney on Tuesday, including a pregnant woman and her ten-month-old baby hit by a car.
The baby was unhurt, but the mother was taken to Westmead Hospital with a hip injury.
