Fookin speed bumps really grip my sh!t. I'm sick of scraping the fook out of my chassis rails and having my exhaust ripped off. I wouldn't mind if I was speeding over them but this is just when creeping over. The last set I encountered was exiting camber sands car park .... EXITING!. We had to all get out and lift the fookin car over the fooking thing! :evil:

There is a legal maximum height for speed bumps. Maximum height is 100mm so if you make sure that the lowest part of your car is higher than this then you should be ok. If they are higher than 100mm and damage your car you should be able to claim damages off of the council.

I used to know a highways engineer who drove a slammed SAAB 95 (and I mean slammed) who used to use it to test out speed bumps that had been put in!!! Thats the sort of highways engineer we need!!! :thumbsup:

Another thing i hate about speed bumps is they cant do your suspention/steering geometry any favours.

 

I also hate it when people get right on your back bumper because you slow down to about 5mph so you don't do any damage to your car.

I can't believe how fast some muppets drive thier cars over speed humps,some people don't seem to slow down at all,i would not wan't to buy a car that has been abused like that would you?.
