Sleeping Policemen - Are they a Good Thing?

Sleeping Policemen; what are they? I hear you say. Well they are not what you may immediately think of. No they are not the local Sheriff sleeping off his coffee and donuts under a shade tree. They are in fact Speed bumps placed in neighborhoods to slow traffic down. I am originally from England and that's what they are called over there. So why do I bring this up? Well in my neighborhood, Hidden Meadows in Yucaipa, they are causing quite a stir. We have quite a steep downhill which has a 25 mph speed limit yet a lot of motorists are seen doing at least double that. Clearly a danger to local children etc. The City of Yucaipa installed several Speed Bumps to slow the traffic down. Well not all the community feels the same way and some feel they cause damage to their vehicles. My argument...
