@Showroom7561 Wow! Complaining about you riding in the middle lane when there are parked cars, bus stops & turning traffic in the left lane.
Perhaps there should be some sort of training & testing before people are allowed to drive a car. There doesn't seem to be any at present <sarcasm>

Locals get used to whatever they encounter regularly. I know which humps are rough & which I can cruise over on my regular route.
Also, distracting drivers as they approach a pedestrian crossing is a really bad idea. This optical illusion will distract drivers from checking for approaching pedestrians.
