Speed Humps
Speed humps, sleeping policeman, speed cushions (slightly different), call them what you like I don't like them.
Had a council letter saying they are proposing to make it a 20mph zone along our street and this involves laying down speed cushions. Buses and lorries use this road and it seems speed cushions will let them run between the cushions. So while hunting for ammunition so I could write to them objecting to this idea I found this site - http://www.abd.org.uk/speed_humps.htm

Remember the Citroen GS?
We got one of the first vans. http://www.roadtransport.com/blogs/t...pics%20006.jpg Dunstable had just installed 'humps' on Boscome Road. The Citroen GS would take the humps flat-out without noticing . . .

On the abd website as mentioned above - a certain British Police officer states his subaru could skim the humps at 70 mph.
