the humps were there to slow down speeding cars not to impede motorcyclists doing the speed limit
What is there to slow the speeding motorcyclist down then that doesn't impede the car driver doing the speed limit? The only motorcyclists that I see driving below the speed limit are the ones with "L" plates following an instructor or the ones near a police car. I have never seen a car doing wheelies past a speed camera whilst doing over the limit but have seen many bikers doing this.
