    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, once again, I want to say that we resort to erecting bumps as a last resort, because we believe that it is probably not the best way to go about saving lives and avoiding accidents. We really try and liaise with the people involved, but when the design for a road is being done, all care is taken to ensure that when the speed limits recommended are actually adhered to, then accidents are not as many as they are. As we look at, for instance, urban centres, where the speed limit is 40 kilometres per hour, motorists going through such towns want to move at 100 kilometres per hour. So, it is inevitable that accidents will occur. So, once again, I would like to say that it is not the Ministry’s policy to put road bumps. We only do that as a last resort. There are other measures that we are taking, including putting road signs. We hope that members of the public and motorists will obey them."
