I noticed that lately there are many bumps were built to avoid accidents from happening in USJ 18 area.
it is understandable to have such bumps built for the citizens own good, however, should too many bumps are built will be causing inconvenient.

what i'm not really satisfied is that :
1) too many bumps were built and this will definitely put the residents into annoyed, imagining i would need to go through few bumps before reaching to usj 17 shops from where i stay [usj 18]. nowadays there will be even more bumps i'll need to travel through.

2) bumps in front of the 'pondok' of usj 18 is unnecessary to my opinion. should someone insists of maintaining those unnecessay bumps, please make it lower so that it won't damage my vehicle's bottom part WHENEVER I FETCH MORE THAN JUST 2 PASSENGERS.

3) i understand, however, the purpose of building the bumps is to prevent accidents happened, to reduce the speed of vehicles around the residents compound. indeed, those bumps reduce accident cases but too many bumps will eventually frustrate people & damge our vehicles.

4) be reminded that a driver drives carefully & cautiously because of his/her moral not because of the bumps. if i'd live in such situation where i'd need so many bumps around my house, i'd rather think of moving out rather than struggling with those frustrating bumps.

i've been discussing the matter with few of my neighbours, they, too, were thinking that those bumps are indeed unnecessary though we know that there are people who like to be having it. thus i'd be happy if we bring the topic to be discussed and settled it.

lastly, i'd like to appologize if there is anyone feels offended reading this message, this message simply does not mean to offend anyone or anything.

You cannot please everybody. There will be some who wants it and some who don't. Andrew might not be aware and might not have noticed how fast some residents drive.

A little boy cycling on the road was knocked down by one of his close neighbours some time back. Except for some bruises, it was fortunate that he wasn't injured.

For the general good of all, what is a little inconvenience?

I understand a little inconvenience for safety sake has no harm for anyone and we have absolutely no reason to blame it.

however, the bumps which were build too high for most of the vehicles will hit its bottom whenever the vehicles have more than 3 passengers in the car including the driver.

i was just hoping that the bumps will be reconstructed to be lower so that it wouldn't damage our vehicles yet those bumps are still slowing the speed of cars around the residents area.
