      Please no, i drive a smart car not a tank with wheels. Even under speed those are jarring i fuckin hate the roads that are lined with them.

        One less used alternative is making roads that are squiggly instead of straight. Like every part of the road is a bend this way or that way, which makes people drive slower because there is never a straightaway.

        Having driven on a few of them, they definitely do work. But theyre almost more annoying than speed bumps or dips

      Yes, but they’re much more intensive to install and maintain, and they also don’t work well against things like trucks with wide wheel bases and high undercarriages.
