    • These things are such pain in the ass, These bumps often are also reasons for some accidents, the authorities should put action with this issue.

    • I'm an avid driver too, and unnecessary speed bumps are only additional pain in the arse. The right authorities shouldn't have placed them everywhere they liked without proper assessment.
