Do you loathe speed bumps?
This letter re speed bumps was declined by the Post but l think it makes a valid point.

Dark night, poor light, motorcyclist going just a little too fast. She doesn't realise that the speed bump on the steepest part of Hill Street is 30cm (12 inches) high.
Bike and rider get launched into an unexpected, rotating crash. It doesn't end well, broken neck, early death...
Some of the new speed bumps are a health and safety disaster just waiting to happen.
