Motor vehicles driving without any regard for speed limits are a leading cause of accidents in the country. The law related to speeding is rarely enforced, and instead a reliance on speed breakers actually contributes to more accidents than it helps at curbing speeding vehicles. Most speeding related accidents occurred because of the speed breakers on highways to curtail speeding, say experts. Many of the speed breakers on highways were unmarked, most drivers failed to spot them and slow down, especially at night. People who have businesses or residences near highways, pay off road construction crews, and put up their own speed breakers in various locations.
