    the point of speed bumps isn’t to slow to a crawl just before you hit them and then carry on speeding (which is what everyone does…)

    if you’re actually going the speed limit, it shouldn’t damage anything…

      You haven’t encountered many of these short speed bumps. The longer ones are like that. But no short speed bumps is safe to go over at anything but a crawl.

      Most speed bumps in the usa will fuck up your car, or at least give you a really bad day if you hit them at anything over 3mph. There are milder versions with names like “speed pillows” that let you go a little faster, but even those don’t let you go the full speed limit.
