Reminds me of the steps people wanted built in some area for the elder. The people asked the city and it was going to cost them thousands of dollars to do and didn’t have the time. Someone took it upon themselves to do it and spent like $200-$300. The city got upset and took it down lol

Speed bumps aren't going to fix the problem they will only create new problems. They slow down emergency response damage peoples property make snow removal and drainage impossible. They are illegal to install on any main artery and can only be funded privately but you can't just install stuff on a roadway without proper permits.

[@micahnightwolf]

@@R0n1n760 I heard that too. One dude wanted steps put in to traverse a hill into a park area, and he petitioned the city who declined and said it was too expensive. So he built it out of wood himself. They took it down in this case, but they eventually replaced it with concrete stairs.

Its also Illegal to speed in a neighborhood where there are Children and Pets. And the cops dont do shit about it. Instead of installing speed bumps. Go to home depot and yourself a few bags of sakrete black top repair. Get a cheap plastic bowl and make small speed lumps. About a 50 foot stretch would do the trick. Turn your street into a washboard road and those speeders will slow down or take another route. Floriduh is full of speeders. Most of them are drunk or on drugs behind the wheel. They drive like maniacs and will run you down and keep going. They have No regard for human lives.

[@TheCharm1ed]

Its pretty shitty that people have to go to this extreme to stop people speeding up and down there road. If the council gets multiple warnings that people are speeding on there road then they should come and install speed humps.

[@paxundpeace9970]

Usually it is the neighbors speeding on neighborhood streets.

[@jareddunkley1542]

Speed bumps are proven not to work to reduce speeding. Multiple studies have proved cars slow down to go over the bump then slam on the accelerator to go back up to speeding. This is actually more dangerous then remaining at the higher speed. Narrowing roads and making things feel tighter is the the only proven way to safely reduce speeding as it makes the drivers do it subconsciously. Anything like excessive stop signs or speedbumps will cause drivers to just speed up erratically in between to make up the time

[@DevasionX]

no need for bumps there, the potholes will do.

[@Robbie1075]

I find this really funny as the town I live in was at one time known as the speed bump capital of the UK. We have them all over the place on residential side roads. When they first started putting them in they made them too large and a few cars couldn't get over them. I was in a car with some mates and the driver stopped for everyone to get out at one point, because he knew a particular speed bump could only be cleared if he was the only person in the car.

I ride an electric scooter every once in a while, and I was in a parking lot the other day with no option but to go over these speed bumps. I went over 3 of them and scraped the nuts off the bottom of the scooter.

Well quite a few cars picked up a load of nails that just accidentally got dropped in the alley. lol.

[@joelmitchell7237]

I fully support this. If people are driving way too fast in close quarter neighborhoods then by all means add a speed bump. Lord knows the police don’t do anymore traffic enforcement these days. I can not tell you how many people I see ON A DAILY BASIS speeding up to a stop sign in my neighborhood and flying by my family when they’re out by the side of the street (in a neighborhood with a 20mph speed limit with speed bumps and stops signs). It’s unreal.

[@christah4102]

Yep. Having the same problem on my mom's road. These punk kids fly up and down the road. One just wrecked tonight, right in front of her house. I checked online, you can buy rubber speedbumps for around $150 each on Amazon (lol). I thought about buying some, but once I researched it I found you have to get permission from the city or county to install them. These people who fly up and down the road in residential areas ought to have the book thrown at them. They are part of the reason kids can't safely play outside these days.

Then they will invite friends over who also have loud sports cars that will do the same. Me and my neighbors have had it. I’ve tried talking to these people but that made it worse. We have a lot kids and pets that live on this road. It’s not a wide road either as it’s just wide enough for two cars to drive on it side by side. The kid across the street got his license and him and his friends would race side by side down our neighborhood road. I went over and tried talking to the parents who thought I was being an asshole just for complaining and I politely asked if he would stop.

The officer then tried to escalate the conversation saying you would rather go to jail than let us do our job. that was weeks ago and I've yet to see an officer in this neighborhood too slow this traffic down.

Send the tax payer bill to cooper paving

[@mattf49006]

and the guy with the trailer

[@gallardo360]

I'm real close to installing a few myself on my street.

[@HEADBANGRR]

KUDOS TO THE NEIGHBORS PUTTING SPEED BUMPS!

[@Deetroiter]

Shame on channel 8 for making the residents look like they are the bad people for doing what city police won't solve

[@RedSiegfried]

Well of course they're the bad people. The live in trailers so they must be. Probably Trump voters who hate the government too! We can't have that!

[@D_Cali_Life]

When a kid gets run over. They will lose more $$$ from a lawsuit then just letting them install the bumps.

[@RedSiegfried]

It's not about safety or about money. It's about the city and the police making sure you know who's in charge.

[@jonathnjdm714]

More power to the resident's of that neighborhood minus the stool pigeons not minding their own business. Plus you always have to drive slow in residential areas so yes those speed bumps won't break your vehicle unless you aren't aware of how fast your going and TIGHTEN UP YOUR DAMN BOLTS!!!

[@Marine_Ret]

Public Works has time and money to remove speed bumps but no time or money to install speed bumps.

[@trywait1979]

Death threats for speed bumps lol wtf?

[@ihavetopoopbutiwantedtosay1683]

Must have gotten one hell of a deal on those fine looking bumps😂

[@bryonmiller4326]

That's a city maintained roadway? It looks like the residence did the entire job on the street themselves. It looks like a private road that is inside a trailer park. There's some interesting things they left out of this story. 1. How many times did they call the city before getting fed up and installing their own speed bumps? And 2, how many times did the complainers have to call the city for them to give enough of a shit to do something? I bet they had to twist arms to the point of giving indian burns to get them to even respond to the fact that someone else installed the speed bumps.

[@mickjmcgregor4384]

I hate speed bumps but we have idiots speeding on our road and the next road over a 4 year old girl was killed by a speeder so i under stand why they installed the bumps.

[@jcpt928]

To anyone thinking speed bumps will solve speeding, or that they are a good idea - they're not. Traffic management research has proven it time and time again that they don't solve the problem.

[@BloodyKnives66]

So what does solve it then? 🤔

[@annaharward9295]

Let me get this straight. It cost the government absolutely nothing and they're willing to waste money at the monetary expense and the threat of safety to the taxpayers? America, people.

[@zachgray9104]

I hope they put the speedbump back up. I actually hate speed bumps, only because some still scrape my exhaust regardless of how slow im going, but if they slow ppl down then im all for it.

[@ericawilliams6900]

Man this is so messed up I feel they pain because I have gone down to my local police department and complained about cars speeding through my neighborhood doing 80 and 90mph the police officer lady laughed and said that can't be true because the car would hydroplane I said okay well you'll see I'm telling the truth when you have to come scrape someone off the pavement and wash away the blood🤦🏽‍♀️😭my neighbor's and I just pray constantly for each other. Oh yeah and the people that comes through driving fast doesn't live in our neighborhood they just use our road because it's a long stretch.

[@ShyRage1]

If people are speeding down the street why not have them installed?
