Perhaps reducing the limit there will reduce collisions, but again - why penalize the driver by restricting their speed to accommodate pedestrians who don't look before crossing the road or who are zoned out on whatever recreational substance of the day.

I guess that the "Shawn of the Dead" pedestrians there don't seem to be concerned with the probability of getting hurt or killed by cars they stagger out in front of. Maybe electric fences along the roadsides? A real life GTA course? Just considering all possibilities.
