Tom, I believe the term is "sleeping policeman" not dead policeman. Either
way I feel that speed bumps cannot contribute to the calming effect
wanted. They're more like controling than calming. I see calming as
moderately slowing speeds, not drastically altering driving. For example,
I think the calming effect of having parking on both sides of First street
neer Russel School is great. The street quickly and alternately becomes
single lane. Thus drivers must be prepared to slow and give way.
