I really like that it tracks speed. Being able to tell officials that a significant portion of drivers are speeding seems like a great first step when requesting stop signs or speed bumps.
Speed bumps are such a shitty solution to speeding. I’d prefer speeders to speed bumps.
I'd rather your car get fucked up than a person.
Dope, I’ll get a large SUV or truck to replace my small hatchback so I don’t have to slow down at all. Larger vehicles improve pedestrian safety right?
Speed bumps are a bandaid being used as a solution. They fuck with emergency vehicles, encourage rapid braking and acceleration, incentivize getting a larger vehicle, reduce gas mileage, and create noise from braking and acceleration. I’ll take literally any other traffic calming measure over a speed bump.
They’re a hell of a lot better than nothing.
They're actively worse than nothing.
