Speed hump from hell!

[Tourershine]

My brother and I came across this monstrosity in Nottingham yesterday. We both sat there trying to work out if a vehicle was actually suppose to drive over it or not, but there were no signs.

The person that invented this clearly wasn't a car lover.
Driving over it was not only extremely worrying that it would chew my rims to bits, but it shook the van so violently, my dash cam fell off the screen.

Oh my god that looks like the mother of all Police stop-sticks!!!!!!

I have no idea what the thought was around the installation of this. It was a quiet housing estate, on a small road, with very little traffic.
I've been to pretty much every location in the UK with my work, and i've never seen anything like it.

That looks evil. You need motor x bike to get over that one

If I lived there, I’d want to concrete over the lot

I doubt if you would get a motor bike over that. God help a bike rider who comes across it at night.

A very good point.
We saw no warning signs or any indication it was actually there, until we were pretty much on top of it, so at night would be a lot worse.

You couldn't ride over that on large motorbike!!!!

 

[Sjacko20]

Wow, that’s some piece of engineering. Bet it’s cost a few unsuspecting people in tyres and wheel refurbs

 

[StudleyGlass]

Should be safe in a unimog

@Tourershine was that thing the reason the streets were quite? With minimal traffic thats avoiding it..
Looks very much overkill and waste of monies.

 

[richi]

Wow! it looks like it has thrown the van over to the wrong side of the road!

 

[Tourershine]

Ok, I was exaggerating the shake with my head for comical reasons, but it wasn't a pleasant experience.

I honestly dont think I could get over that in Bert.

If you turn up the volume you can hear my shockers screaming in pain.
