After seeing so many signs and warnings, after a while you don't believe that the speedbump will ever show up....
But never underestimate the power of a speedbump. Don't say they didn't warn you :lol: 8) :lol:

Sorry dude, that was a terrible vid.
Abu Dhabi speedbumps are called Nissan Sunnys. ;-)

Kinda anticlimatic, but at least the RTA as their ***** covered if someone uberfails and wipes out on the speedbump.

Kinda, I was expecting the car to somersault or something.

In Europe my bumper would not fall off with 20km an hour.
I don't know what you are used to...?
Its an insane bump. Looks like a half moon or a meteorite entrenched in tarmac....

Anyone seen the speedbump out behind the Marina Mall in Abu Dhabi? A meter long by 24 cm tall!! Always fun to sit at the overlooking coffee shop and see tourists slam into this monstrosity.

How do I pass with my Merc CLK-GTR...?
I just bought it and now I can't drive it on UAE roads. I would really be a pissed off shaikh...

It's on the back road of the mall near the ski slope, so it's not really that out in the open. Saw a 599 GTB hit it the other day, take out the lower lip, bottom out, then catch its tailipipes on the trailing edge.

It was a local that hit it, he looked stunned at first but just kept driving. It's not like the bump is hard to see it's made out of BRICKS on an asphalt road.

I like the lamborghini version a lot better.
Wait for it, right at the end. 0:36 secs.

Yep that was 4 years ago when they were widening Jumeirah Beach Road and putting in 'road calming' but they were very new and the humps were put in before the warning signs, they just looked like normal road. :D
I have to say in one or two small backstreets there are still completely unlit and unpainted speedhumps (well, guess they were painted long ago) bumps. Nasty. narrow but high, that would do much more serious damage to your car than just launching it into the air!

Wow, that lambo vid is funny as hell. Obvious no one knows about the speedbump by the way even the taxis are getting sparks.

It was a popular video back in the day. The Lambo was nearly totalled, judging by pics later.
