Guess I’ll just hit that black pickup that is in the squiggly lane then.
Yes, I know what it is intended to do. This is a really lazy and shitty implementation like early roundabouts added to side streets without redoing the corner curbs to make space for cars going around the circle.
You’re clearly never seen a vehicle hit a speeed bump at speed, it causes lose of control. So if you’re going straight, you’re actually safer this way. But people following the law still slow down.
I was commenting about how it was implemented on a straight street with no obvious considerations for the lanes
going into the spaces where cars are parked. Just about how they did it on this specific street, and not about comparative safety.
Again, just because you can’t see how it’s beneficial doesn’t mean it’s not!
Chicans don’t always need physical curbs or other means! Today YOU learned! Neat eh?
Physical curbs are what would CAUSE someone to hit that black truck, but clearly you and other people who think they’ll just plow into the back of it, probably shouldn’t have a license.
Also, who’s cares if a parked car gets it? No one is injured, and guess what, it’s its OWN barrier itself! Neat eh!
Say what? Speed bumps work better at speed because your suspension sorta floats over them. Hit one at 35MPH vs. 15MPH, you’ll see what I mean. Same as driving the rutted dirt road to our camp. 5-10MPH has you bouncing all over the place. 30MPH is about the right zone.
No idea what you’re saying about loss of control. Maybe our speed bumps are entirely different?
That’s the point, a speeding vehicle hitting speed bumps can loose control, so a drunk driver is less of a concern, but law abiding people are still slowed down appropriately.
Don’t mock shit just because you can’t comprehend it lmfao.
Traffic “calmers”, safer than speed bumps, and anyone that ignores them get tickets.

So? It still works on streets like that.
So what’s your point here then?
I was extremely clear about what my point was. Do you assume I ‘really mean’ something other than what I wrote?
I was hoping your point was something other than “I don’t understand it, so I’m dumb”, but thank you for clarifying.
If you still think I don’t understand that chicanes are good but that I am criticizing this specific one then your reading comprehension sucks.

How does suspension float over a BUMP? There’s other methods that are road divots, but bumps protrude up from the road….
Yea, I’d drive straight thru that mother fucker if there was no traffic.
I’m already going slow, looking for kids.
How fucking stupid.
Don’t know where this pic is from, but yeah, I feel like most Americans would just go straight.
