Slow Traffic with Traffic Calming

Easy rider speed bumps are effective traffic calming tools that have been used all across the country. Because they are made from 100% recycled rubber (used car tires), they are an eco-friendly alternative to concrete.

In addition to being earth-friendly, they are also very vehicle-friendly. Many people have damaged the underside of their vehicles by scraping concrete bumps.

There are a lot of traffic calming road markings treatments and strategies that can help you slow down and divert cars in residential areas.

Bump Out

Even the most cautious driver driving at 1 mph can scrape their vehicle on some concrete bumps. Rubber bumps are different, hence the name "easy rider speed bump". The rubber will give and conform to both the road on one side and the vehicle on the other side. For this reason, easy rider speed bumps can be driven over gently.

Recycled rubber is a wonderful material to use to construct traffic calming devices. The obvious reason is that it diverts materials that are otherwise destined for the landfill. But there are other reasons as well. Rubber is naturally resistant to UV light, oil, water, and temperature extremes.

Easy rider speed bumps are therefore incredibly durable and will last beyond their 3-year warranty. Rubber is also easily conformable, so it is an excellent solution for uneven road surfaces.

Easy rider bumps create a safer parking lot, and for this reason, insurance premiums are lowered for parking lot owners who install them. Lot owners also like the fact that they are maintenance-free. Concrete bumps inevitably crumble and require expensive maintenance and repair. In addition, concrete bumps must be continually repainted to remain highly visible at night. Easy rider bumps, on the other hand, feature an embedded reflective tape that is easily spotted at night.
