San Diego
San Diego will conduct a six-month test in residential areas to determine whether speed bumps control speeders.
The City Council’s Transportation and Land Use Committee on Monday approved spending $12,000 to install the bumps on two streets in Skyline and Paradise Hills.
The bumps are typically 3 inches high, 4 feet wide and 12 feet long. Thousand Oaks, Pasadena and Sacramento have undertaken similar projects.
Councilman Wes Pratt expects the bumps to be an inexpensive alternative to using police to chase speeders.
