[skyrim] Why is it that nobody tries to do anything about all the dangers on the roads and cities?

I mean, why didn't anyone try to deal with the skooma dealers in riften and the like?

This is actually a recurrent problem in medieval settings- when the world is huge and your most effective communication/co-ordination tool is "yell", you just have to live with bandits. You send guards patrols (and you see them) but, ultimately, the bandits can just hide in the woods/mountains/etc and there's not much you can do about that.

The best analogy might be, in our modern world, internet conman. Are people trying to do something about them? Absolutely. But, ultimately, there's too much internet, too many ways to hide and not enough people to check all of it. So we just acknowledge it as fact of life. 

Same here. People are doing what they can but when there's countless miles of unmontitored wilderness, bandits are just a fact of life.
