They think protecting drivers cars from scratches is more important than protecting pedestrians from getting hit, so they make the sidewalk part of the “clear zone”

In general yes, but if you have to put a barrier between the road and the footpath to keep people safe the problem isn’t that there are no barriers
Right. It’s the cars. But as long as the cars are there, a barrier is a good quick fix
Banning driving under influence and enforcing speed limits would be a better and quicker fix if you ask me. If a car driver can’t behave they should take away their car.
Barriers really shouldn’t be necessary on local roads.
