Outrage on Speed Humps in the UK

I don't have any links to this, but in the UK (as I heard on talk back radio to-day), there is outrage on the use of aggressive speed humps popping up everywhere with no consideration to Ambulance patients or low slung cars (having to reverse back off humps).

There are 6 speed humps along the upper part of the Mitchell's Pass Rd at Blaxland NSW and they've been there for decades. All of a sudden, the local council has made each of the 6 higher and more pointed.

Yeah, they're getting a bit nuts.

IIRC, in the UK, a local council can install speed humps but speed limit changes and signs require approval from the Department for Transport. So guess what the result is...

Yep, my VW kin in the UK are constantly smashing sumps off and having to fit bash plates.
