Proposal for speed bumps is a bad idea for Maxome

@Tiffany Chin I’m not against enforcing speed limits — I’m fully in favor of safer streets. My point is that enforcement should be based on common sense and effectiveness, not just piling on measures that disrupt everyone’s daily life. Speed humps and speed cameras can reduce speeds in very specific situations, but they also come with real downsides — increased noise from braking and accelerating, delays for emergency vehicles, wear and tear on cars, and driver frustration that can lead to unsafe behaviour elsewhere. Instead, a more balanced approach would include: • Targeted police enforcement in problem areas, based on real data. • Better road design, like narrower lanes or curb extensions, that naturally encourage drivers to slow down. • Community awareness and signage reminding drivers of limits where pedestrians or kids are present. In short, I’m for smart, evidence-based solutions that make roads safer without over-engineering the neighbourhood. Being thoughtful about how we enforce speed limits isn’t hypocritical — it’s just practical.
