In shopping centers, many people blow by or simply ignore the many stop signs put up by the door ways. They also ignore the fact that they should use the standard equipment on their vehicle known as the blinker. Ignoring these two things leads to a lot of mishaps in parking lots. These speed humps have actually drawn notice to themselves and made people slow down, thus making it safer for everyone. I have actually seen them come into use as I was walking into a couple of stores. Instead of speeding by at the speed of light, operators of vehicles have to slow down, or damage their cars. For this reason, I love the speed hump.
On roads that are not well marked or have crazy turns, it is easy for the operator of a vehicle to mis-judge speed necessary to traverse the next bend and end up off the road. With the addition of a speed hump before the tough bend in the road (in neighborhoods at slower speeds) the speed of the vehicle is slowed and the turn is easily driven. The addition of the speed hump in this circumstance is a great help to everyone involved.
Here in northern Virginia, Alexandria and Fairfax County, things are a bit more smooth on the roads because of the speed hump.

Are They Really Helping Me?
Anyone who has read me thus far knows that I am new to the area. Knowing this supports my thoughts about something so mundane to the common road traveler. As I have been motoring around the northern Virginia area over the last several weeks, I have noticed that the words speed and humps can actually be put together to mean something rather useful.
When I first saw a sign with these words on it, I was a bit confused, but I usually am on a daily basis. This particular confusion quickly turned to curiosity as to the need or usefulness of the sign and the hump it refers to. I have seen a speed bump, but this animal was a different species, for sure. It may sound ludicrous or maybe unnecessary to discuss these items on our roadways, but let me say a few things first, before you dismiss the importance of this article.
