I am glad you all love speed humps. They waste fuel, wear suspension,
wear tyres,wear brakes,damage vehicles,cause road rage and contribute
to global warming. They have an other purpose sometimes,to annoy all you
sheeple on to the roads the superior beings want you to use. Pavlov
would have loved them as a conditioning aid
I don't really mind them unless they're the really sharply humped kind
that you have to slow waaaaaay down to go over. I think dips are a
little more effective than bumps though since you can't just speed up to
smooth them out.
I'd love to get some speed bumps installed on the hill I live on, people
regularly scream up it at 35-45 mph despite the 25 mph limit and blind
crest. More than one neighborhood pet has been killed and it's just a
matter of time before it's someones kid. Find another way to force
people to reduce their speed to something sensible in residential
neighborhoods or at least pay attention in certain places and I'm all
ears. First time someone smashed their undercarriage on a speed bump
placed right at the crest they might learn to slow down a bit, better
their car damaged than a pedestrian.
