im pretty sure speedbumps with non newtonian fluids exist that do nothing if you're following the speed limit but do the speedbump thing if you're not, idk why those aren't widely adopted.

    Fluid fill speed humps cost more and wear faster due to fatigue of moving components. Road maintenance is already a ponzi scheme, I can appreciate why local government doesn't want to exacerbate that.

    The best solution is the most simple one: Narrow the lanes and plant canopied trees (for psychological reasons beyond my understanding, having a ceiling or obstruction above drivers slows them down as well).
