Speed Humps

People who don't live on Hermosa Vista hate the temporary speed humps. The people who do live on the street like them. Now, the stats seem say that the speeds are getting down to the legal limit, and traffic has actually decreased in the area. Seems like a good thing to me.

However, Mesa has a survey that says people don't like it. Well, unless there is some other compelling reason to remove them, I'd say they are doing their job. Kids don't like vegetables, but that doesn't make the greens any less good for them.

Why does the city take a stand on stupid things like Roadside memorials, but turn their tail and run on other things like these speed humps? Now Councilman Jones said that other streets are taking the brunt of the traffic woes. If there are stats to prove that, I might change my mind. However, once again, either Mesa is doing something misguided or they have once again failed to explain themselves properly.
