if you think putting up signs would help reduce or stop this from happening again, then why not put up/install speed bumps? Nope, probably the better solution is education where the drivers need to be made aware of the dangers of speed and recklessness. there is also the option of harsher and higher fines cos some people value their money more than their life.
