We, the tenants of Highland Lake, are petitioning for the removal of the speedbumps recently installed in the apartment complex for the following reasons:
1. The speed bumps encourage rapid acceleration and speed increases as drivers attempt to make up for time lost slowing down for the bumps. This causes more accidents, not fewer.
2. The speed bumps can impede or slow emergency vehicle access to areas within the complex.
3. The speed bumps cause excessive pollution due to the necessary braking and acceleration.
4. The speed bumps damage the shocks and the suspension of many cars.
5. The speed bumps cause general discomfort while driving.
