That's okay man, happens to the best and worst of us! The city has installed these speed "humps" on my street, I need to go over 2-3 of them every time I come home, depending on which side I come from. The 550 Maranello does NOT like them... I need to have slowed down sufficiently, then blip the gas ever so slightly to raise the front end, to go over without scraping the front lip. It's quite literally the only way to do it.
The underside of the Diablo's front bumper is a bit scratched up from the years of previous owner use, but I feel like I want to drive it a couple of seasons before actually investing in a repaint. Without really spending real miles behind the wheel for months at a time, there's no way for me to know the dimensions as well as I do my other stuff... so I'm sure I'll scrape it coming on or off a driveway somewhere. The '91 was one of the only early years that didn't have an axle lift system. I'd like to retrofit one one day...
I hear ya...these popped up all over my neighbourhood this year. Funny watching folks take them full speed 
They added a few of these to a street here in Fredericton after three people, including two teenagers, died in a crash while doing between 138 and 174 km/h. This is a residential street with a speed limit of 50.

There was already speed bumps on that stretch of road, I hear that the residents are not overly happy about the sheer number of speed bumps they added. The thing about that crash, they were drinking, they were young, and they were being chased by cops, so speed bumps likely wouldn't have slowed them down, just made them crash sooner.
Well that's the point, isn't it? If they had crashed sooner, they would have been going slower and may not have died.
I don't really know why people complain about those speed humps in residential neighbourhoods. You generally don't have to crawl over them, and without them a lot of people tend to speed recklessly.
In my neighbourhood the only people I notice driving fast are the ones that are cutting through to avoid the Waterloo/Forest Hill intersection. The people that actually live here drive reasonably.
I think my annoyance is that there hasn't been any designed specifically to reduce your speed to the posted speed limit, which in residential neighborhoods is 50kph. If that's the speed limit, I should be allowed to drive said speed limit without having to break for stupid speed bumps. But I know they exist for a reason, my big complaint is when they are either the type that are so sharp you basically have to crawl over them, or there are so many in a row (which is what is the problem with Douglas avenue now).
I missed the time when society would let idiots hurt themselves and not have to put safety measures on everything. There are waaay too many stupid people walking around nowadays.
I agree, speed humps only irritate people who give a
about the vehicle they're driving. The city of Memphis installed 4 of those 'very sharp, you must crawl over' types on Riverside, which runs along the Mississippi so it has a bunch of tourist and pedestrian traffic. Unfortunately, it's also my route to the office, so even though the speed limit is 35mph, I have to slow to about 5mph to go over the humps. Course, bros in lifted trucks, tourists in rentals, anyone in a company fleet truck, guys joyriding in stolen cars, etc all just fly over them creating a dangerous sitation.
