As many of you are probably aware a ridiculous amount of speed humps have been installed in our subdivision streets. I’m starting a petition to see how many members of our community are interested in having them removed.
Why no love for the humps?
1) Increases Road maintenance spending: I’ve witnessed several cars ride up onto the curbs in order to escape the humps, which will eventually result in the wear of our curbs and thus more road/curb maintenance spending
2) They are environmentally unfriendly: Having to slow down and speed up uses more fuel, thus increasing our carbon footprint.
3) Slows down access of emergency personal: If emergency personal have to slow down 5 times to get to your home, it could be the difference between life and death.
4) Increases vehicle ownership costs: Slowing down and speeding up, riding over the humps all Increase wear and tear on your vehicle
- especially those that ride low to the ground.
5) Increases noise pollution: Vehicles slowing down and speeding up creates
more engine and brake noise.
6) Our subdivision has been without speeding / collision accidents for 5+
years… why now?
My alignment is shot thanks to these things. Takes me forever to get to the main road now and the noise from the trucks braking is constant. Get rid of them!
