Looks to me like it failed.
Somebody already ran her over in a bus or something and she's been smeared further up the road.
Shame |

I agree with CodeJockey, I'm seeing some serious backfire potential in this plan. |

So the goal of this "speed bump" is to make drivers slam on their brakes and swerve to avoid an imaginary child? Whoever thought of this genius idea is probably the same person who controls road maintenance in my town. |

Driver: "Dammit! Is this another one of those optical illusions?!"
*VrrrrrrmmmMMMMMMM!*
Girl: "ARRRHGGGG!!!"
*ga-bump-ga-bump! Scree!*
Driver: "Hm. There's something wrong. Better back up and check."
*VrrrrrrmmmMMMMMMM! ga-bump-ga-bump! Scree!*
Passenger: "That's just a bump in the road."
Girl: "MOTHER-F*CKERS!!!"
*VrrrrrrmmmMMMMMMM! ga-bump-ga-bump! Vrrrmmmmmm!!!*

I forsee more accidents as motorists slam on their brakes for non-existent kids. |

This might not be a good idea. When speeders see a kid in the street they might think it's one of these things |

eventually people will get so used to seeing these "kids" in the road that they won't slow down for any kid. |

The problem I see with this method is that a driver caught off guard might slam on his or her brakes causing an accident. |

"In UK we have signs which tell you your speed shows a smilee face if ure under the speed limit or frown if ure above."
I always light up the frown deliberately. |

this will just make you slow down to see the optical illusion work. so I guess it does the job |

All speed reducing measures aside from physical measures have a short term effect. What happens is u get desensistised to them. In UK we have signs which tell you your speed shows a smilee face if ure under the speed limit or frown if ure above. But effectiveness only lasts few months before u programme yourself to ignore it. The same will happen here you programme yourself to ignore it and if a kid stupidly runs out into middle of the road your less likely to stop immediately.
Furthermore roads are dangerous, kids need to be taught proper road safety by parents and looked after properly i.e not allowed out until they can stay on pavement. Not screwing with everyone to slow down less then speed limits (often what speed reducing measures do in uk 30 mph limit u have to go 5 over the bump to do no damage) |
