Bexley council is spending more of our money on its anti-motorist vendetta again. It is well known that speed cushions damage tyres. The Daily Telegraph’s website says… “From straddling the chamfered edges of the speed cushions. The tyres are forced downwards and outwards and the inner shoulders get ripped to shreds. You suffer no tyre damage if you go over them one wheel over, one wheel on the flat. But then you eventually break your springs.”

The simpletons at Bexley council probably think it’s a safety measure and deaths resulting from high speed blow-outs from damaged tyres and failing springs don’t matter.
