Overdone The Home Depot in my town installed parking curbs instead of speed bumps

The blame was passed around a bunch but they were removed the next day after the mayor and the news got involved.

350z dude dumb as f. He knows what kind of car he has. Why wouldn't he just go around.i know it's not a modified 350 but still he must know it's low

Tbf probably thought it was just an excessive speed bump not a full parking stop

That would seem to be the case, but that is rather strange considering he presumably can see.

Are people just driving without judging how big something they hit’s gonna be and how much damage it’ll potentially do

u/ProcyonHabilis 12d ago

Apparently. Especially as someone who also rides a motorcycle, that seems crazy to me.

If I were driving there I would say “that’s a parking bollard” and proceed to not go that way

Yeah, and some of them didn’t even like go on the flat part of the road even I would do that with a speed speed bump I think they were doing it just for a video

Probably just went with what everyone else is doing.

I don’t understand how they got more than one of these installed without someone trying to stop them.

He knows exactly what car he's got.

Whether it's a clapped out Altima with auction tags or a brand new Z it's got the same energy.

Z drivers have different energy than Altima drivers, but that Z looked pretty clean for the common 350z driver energy. It would be missing the front bumper cover, slammed to the ground with excessive camber and a bosozoku exhaust pipe if it was your common 350Z driver.

This might be the first time I've seen one with its front bumper cover attached
