Why So Many Road Bumbs On Federal/state Roads? by Gluckdude(m): 5:47pm On Mar 27, 2013
Most times when i travel, i come across various road bumbs, but of recent, this silly trend is really adding up, even on major highway,when u are cruising on 130km\hr u suddenly notice an unusual bumb just a few metres away.

just because i'm about to approach a round about, doesnt mean i have to drive thru as much as 15 subsequent bumbs.
I thought the idea of bumbs was just to make a driver decrease his speed, but having 15 bumbs at just one point, is really outraguos and stuupid.

My thoughts are what of cases with emergency, i.e an anbulance is rushing a near dead victim to the hospital, or a high profile individual need to make a quick exit from a danger zone, how are the gonna survive the slow-motion that comes with jumping of 10 to 15 bombs.

and more so this places have been turn into a mobile market, where u see youths selling all kinds of useful\useful items.
Just wondering if i'm the only one who has come accross this annoying trend.
