    Article from the Chronicle about what happened when the city decided to remove some speed humps for the benefit of the Fire Department. Any thoughts? Does anyone have to deal with these in their neighborhood?

    We have them all over the Heights and I for one like them. The street I'm on sometimes serves as a "cut-thru" and road humps would be welcom on my street because every day I see some idiot doing about 50 down our neighborhood street. A few weeks ago, one nearly swerved into my neighbors front yard at around 55mph.

    I can see where having them on every street could be a problem, even a hazard, but I think they can be very helpful on the side streets.
