A speed hump is a raised area of a roadway, which deflects both the wheels and frame of a traversing vehicle. It is longer than the wheelbase of most cars; this feature distinguishes it from a speed bump. 3, record 1, English, - speed%20bump
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Many people confuse the term speed hump with speed bump. Vehicles traversing a properly designed speed hump at a reasonable speed, i. e. 30 km/h, can drive with relative ease across the hump. Speed bumps, on the other hand, are sometimes installed on private roadways and in commercial parking lots and can be very abrupt and jarring to motorists. 3, record 1, English, - speed%20bump
