Not that close ;) It's more to give a much stronger sense of motion when you're driving and trees are swoosh-swooshing past. It makes you feel you go fast, while without you'd speed up.
Streets where kids are likely to pop up on the street usually are woon-erf. Speeds limited to 15kph, ped priority /everywhere/ (i.e. allowed to walk & play anywhere on the street) and a different layout that further inhibits speeding.
