Fortunately, speed bumps are very rare outside of parking lots on this side of the Atlantic. I try to hit them at the end of a glide, but I won't brake for them. They're no worse than potholes, which I take at speed as well.
If you drive fast enough, your sprung mass hardly has time to react and you barely feel the bumps. I can't imagine that 40lbs of unsprung mass flapping around puts much wear on the suspension.
Can you rent a heavy plow truck? BUMP - BUMP - BUMP - no more problems for Svietlana.
