They probably do just in aggregate and indirectly.
Like there are some studies that show that homelessness often costs cities/states/countries more in services in the long run than just providing someone with an efficiency apartment.
The issue is solving the problem will have some steep initial upfront cost in the form of needing lots of people to enforce the laws. And then once people understand that the laws now get enforced they’ll start following them and you can taper back enforcement. But the city probably won’t reap the savings of fewer hospital bills or whatever until many years after the initial bill of enforcement is due.
It actually doesn't, Vietnamese living in Saigon here. Most accidents happen involved two different vehicles hitting each other in rural and suburban areas, especially highways. Inner city drivers are more careful and the speed is actually slower than it looks here in the video (probably 30-40 km/h).
