Speed bumps aren't effective and just wear out suspension components. It's actually more comfortable to hit speed bumps at higher speeds and let the suspension absorb it than to roll slowly over, causing the entire vehicle to move up and down.
If I could remove only 1 traffic control device, it would be the worthless speed bump.
There are already laws that determine right of way issues. People should just follow these rules or loose their driving privilege. I'd be happy to see the bottom 5% of drivers currently on the road loose their license. As a side benefit, public transportation demand would increase.
The fact that my grandpa is still allowed on the road tells me that it is way too easy to obtain and maintain a license in the U.S.
