19. Speed humps and speed tables are effective speed reduction measures because ___________ A. they allow traffic to proceed at the speed limit. B. speeders will launch off the far end and land hard, possibly damaging their vehicle. C. Both A&B

Answer 1

The correct answer is option A. they allow traffic to proceed at the speed limit.

The speed humps or the speed tables are present on the roads in order to maintain the speed of the vehicles passing by. The presence of the speed bumps force the vehicles to reduce their speed before passing, which allow the traffic to be present in a limited speed and also decrease the potential chances of the crashes.

Answer 2

The correct answer is "they allow traffic to proceed at the speed limit".

First of all, letter B is incorrect as the main function of the speed humps is not to bring harm to the motorists but to ensure the safety of the flow of the traffic. Letter A is correct as speed humps makes the motorists slow down on purpose for the traffic to proceed at a certain speed limit.
