SpeedStopper FAQ's
SpeedStopper® ramps offer the best package for slowing down traffic safely. Installing our ramps will reduce the risk of accidents on your site.

As manufacturers, our product range gives you best quality rubber, with the longest working life but at the lowest cost.
10 to 15 years design life: Our solid rubber ramps perform better than asphalt, concrete or recycled plastic. World-wide, there are now over 5,000,000 bolt-down speed ramps slowing down many millions of vehicles every day. Designed to enforce safe site speed limits slowing down all types, sizes and weights of vehicles.

Questions and Answers
Why use rubber instead of concrete or asphalt?
Hazard invented (1971) the idea of using rubber to manufacture speed ramps to enforce and control traffic speeds without any damage to vehicles.
How high are the ramps and can all types of vehicles drive over? There are three versions, 70mm high, 60mm and 50mm for speeds from5 to 20 m.p.h., and everything from a Smart car to HGVs can drive over.
Will the ramps slow my traffic down?Yes, drivers will slow down and pass over our ramps safely but, to be effective, ramps and signs have to be seen, whatever the conditions.
Are these speed ramps safe?
Manufactured from truck tyre stock rubber to prevent any damage tovehicles as they pass over, SpeedStoppers® are designed to be much more effective than the MOT guidelines of 100mm high ramps in urban areas! |
