You could put governors on all cars but that would do anything for that woman or children getting to school/home safely.
What we need to do is make it so that phones don’t work when the cars are moving.

Now that is a good idea about cell phones not working while driving. And technology might get to the point that a cell phone will be imbedded in the vehicle and you can have a conversation over a speaker and voice dial numbers.
Pedestrian deaths have been a bad problem on US 19 in Pinellas County here in Florida for decades. Not much that works has been done as you have a large number of retail stores and cars often going 75 mph or faster.
