Anecdote: a street near my house in high school had speed bumps next to the park. Occasionally people would be woken up at 3am to a dunk Douchebag shredding down the road at 50 and launching himself off the speed bumps and smashing into stretside cars.
Eventually they had the bright idea (after a few years in a row of snowplows damaging their blades and the road needing repairs) to make a gentle S-curve instead. Now you don’t feel like you can go 10mph over the limit, the road only needs minor repairs every 5 yearsnor so, and to my knowledge nobody has launched themselves into stationary vehicles in many years.
Then they’re making speed bumps wrong or price gauging lol
Speed bumps are far from the best method of traffic calming. A gentle curve like this is a friendlier way of getting the same result

While I appreciate the well thought out comment, I can’t help but note that they should’ve used the Transporter Room since you were around!
