    Optical illusion creates fake speed bumps

    Sounds like an interesting idea, until people realize what they are and just fly past them:

          Offset though so if an E30 cruises through, there will be no broken oil pans

                How about the cops just do their job, but better.

                    I think it would be fun just to make a lot of them then stick them around town.

                      great idea until bob the heroin addict sees these magical pyramids at the last possible second, and swerves his hoopdy into little johnny and friends' lemonade stand for the sake of avoiding creative road paint

                        Unfortunately Little Johnny's lemonade stand would still be run down by the heroin addict if those speed bumps were actually real.When I was in college, this concept actually worked. There is a wide yellow line near the end of campus that looks like it could be a speed bump and people always slow down before driving over it.

                            yeah, then we could have more posts from baggypants whining about getting tickets rather than posts from you whining how cops dont do their jobs. in the r3v world its a no win situation
