Your assertation was that the speed at which traffic : could pass unhindered was the appropriate one. Absolutely. There are two main things which determine the appropriate speed: physics (how bendy, steepness, junctions and so on) and social considerations (location, other non-car users and so on). Speed bumps and other traffic calming measures are used to make the phyically appropriate speed the same as the socially appropriate one. If used correctly, of course - it's possible for the measures to be either too severe or too lenient. : My assertation is that that's silly - and the "unhindered" speed should be : managed to be the appropriate one.

Not something I have experienced, but different councils do seem to have different ideas, so I am quite happy to accept your word that daft speed bumps are in use in some places. Ian

More efficient does not mean lower fuel consumption. It just means the engine is making better use of any quantity of fuel at a given speed i.e a stroke that produced more power than the last, but created less heat would be more efficient than the last. So at 2500rpm, the engine may still well be using more fuel than @ 2000rpm, but just being more "efficient". Ta, G.

More fuel per revolution? no. Mor fuel per hour? yes. More miles per gallon? probably. -- We are the keepers of the sacred words: Ni, Pang, and Ni-wom!
