I understand that the purpose of them is simply to make noise when a car drives over them, as they don't slow you down in any appreciable way like a speed bump/hump.


I thought they would make people drive slower, while retaining a possibility for bicycles to pass in between.

That is what the proposal says. But there is no way a bicycle could pass between those seen on the proposal page at anything near normal bicycling speed.

If you want to allow bicycle

In Denmark we have a larger version of round speed bumps. Usually only 2 or three in each direction.

They are named "pukkelbump" which translates as hump bumps.

More informally they are called turtle bumps.

So maybe we should call them hedgehog bumps and turtle bumps.

I guess these would be counted in?
