Hmm, I'd love to see this in action. I can't count the times I've going 25-30 in a neighborhood and didn't notice the speedbump 'til I hit it full force lol

We don't need speed bumps here... Our roads test even the best off road vehicles. Our roads look better than the moon scape... Low, med or fast speed doesn't matter.. Your vehicle will brake..

Best part is the government got wise and made a law that there not responsible for the accidents or damages you suffer on there roads..

Hoon is a derogatory term used in Australia and New Zealand to refer to a younger person who engages in loutish, anti-social behaviour. In particular, it is used to refer to one who drives in a manner which is anti-social by the standards of contemporary society, that is, fast, noisily or dangerously. While generally applied to automobiles and other road vehicles, anti-hooning legislation also targets hooning behavior wherever it occurs, including motor boats. Hoon activities can include speeding, burnouts, doughnuts or screeching tires.[1] Those commonly identified as being involved in "hooning" or street racing are young, predominantly male although increasingly female drivers in the age range of 17 and 35 years.

Reminds me of the days when I delivered pizza... but I wasn't puttering along at 25-30.

That might make speedbumps so much more fun to drive over. Kids would love it, no doubt.

Given the state of our roads, and how others drive, it's almost a requirement! Just that the speeds rarely get over 35 kph!
