    I think we put in speed bumps a few years ago due to an employee complaint about speeding. I hate whoever suggested that. Not because people weren’t speeding/ riding tails, but now half the people drive 10 MPH going over 20 MPH speed bumps.

    In reality we’ve had a lot of good things due to suggestions over the years.

      Speed bumps now are designed to make SUVs do 20. I don’t have an SUV, I can’t do 20 over them!

        It’s actually the big trucks and jeeps that take them the slowest, or the stupidly lowered cars. I take them fine in a crossover and have coworkers that do fine in priuses and other sedans.

        Meanwhile in my jeep, “what speedbumps?”

        It’s almost as if speedbumps are stupid. If they really wanted to address speeding traffic calming designs would have done it better and been prettier to look at.
