Agreed!

Yes, Bellevue has speed cushions. A quick websearch brings up this

And that’s just the first result.

It beggars belief that you seem to think hiring (even) more cops is a better solution for speeding than making the road less accommodating to speeding.Are there any problems you think can’t be solved with police officers?

Thank you

If SDoT installs more speed cushions all over then many streets will have been ‘fixed’ by having various dips & pot holes filled.

The arterial speed camera for Gatewood is on Fauntleroy. The arterial speed cushions are on California.

I understand that they are ment to make people slow down but they should be small enough that you can still go the speed limit and go over them safely and without possibly damaging your car. It they are forcing people to slow down well below the posted speed limit what’s the point of having the speed limit posted that high there? Also that section of California has a huge amount of space between the lanes and the sidewalks because of the parking and bike lanes. It also has a stop light crosswalk there so it’s already pretty safe. I’m just saying that it your going to put speed cushions on an major arterial Street that is one of two in the major West Seattle area they should be designed so that you can go the speed limit the 99% of the time there aren’t children present. Put a traffic ticket camera there instead that is timed to the school zone then the city can make money and slow people down appropriately. 

Making people slow down to below the posted speed limit is the whole point of speed cushions/bumps.  If people were driving at or below the posted speed limit, which they are legally required to do, there wouldn’t be an issue.

Ticketing people going 35 could be a start.

If you’re driving over them properly and not speeding, they’re not going to wreck your car.  Maybe try taking some personal responsibility for the way you drive instead of blaming all of your problems on the city.

I beg to differ. I routinely traverse speed cushions and I’m a stickler for sticking to the speed limits. Maybe not the newest speed cushions, but there are plenty of speed bumps in WS that require slowing down to 10-15 mph to traverse safely with a sedan while being tailgated by impatient drivers with oversized vehicles.
