Why Do Public Roads Have Lower Safety Standards Than Private Roads?

 

While I was picking up garbage along State Route 159 in Red Rock Canyon, I found this note along the road.

Interesting to see the driving rules set in a private place like Red Rock Country Club in Summerlin such as the lower speed limit and not parking within 40 feet of corners so your visibility of other cars is not blocked by parked cars.

Why do the public roads have lower standards than private roads? So you can reach Albertsons two minutes faster?

The road infrastructure in Clark County is awful, obviously created under a public works head who is a little behind the times. The focus is on moving cars as fast as possible, walkers and bicyclists be damned.

Great sign here applied to Clark County and Las Vegas.
