Do speed bumps really decrease traffic speed? An Italian experience
Accident Analysis and Prevention, 2001Italy introduced the extensive use of speed bumps only in 1990, in an attempt to limit the high number of fatalities involving pedestrians in urban streets caused by the high speed of vehicles. In many countries, such devices have been the subject of careful investigations (in order to assess their effectiveness and disadvantages for the traffic ...

Speed bump–induced spinal column injury
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2005Compression fracture of the vertebral body is common, especially in older adults. Injuries to the spinal column are one of the most frequent injuries by accidents and falls from heights. Vertebral fracture associated with minor trauma, however, is a rare occasion.Five cases were injured in the inner city buses after passing onto speed bumps are ...

Average Speed Bumps: Four Perspectives on Averaging Speeds [PDF]
CHANCE, 2005 highway, where each car travels at a constant speed. Assume that the distribution of the speeds is the same throughout the length of the highway. You adjust your speed so that during a given time unit you overtake the same number of cars as the number of cars that overtake you.

This chapter will cover why China’s economic growth is slowing, and also why this is said to be an important juncture. Should we artificially stimulate economic growth or honestly, and stoically accept these new growth trends? In addition, what kind of policies should be adopted? These questions are not merely the focus of this chapter, but of interest

Speed bump detection system by autothresholding method
2015 23nd Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU), 2015Traffic Sign Recognition Systems help drivers by classifying the traffic signs with some dedicated hardware. In this study, color segmentation and pattern recognition algorithms are developed for detecting speed bump traffic sign. For detection, standard featured mobile cell phone camera is used and this study is concentrated on especially high noisy ...
