Therefore, in this study, focusing on vehicular speed can be reduced even humps with flat part length assuming installation at the intersection etc, a traffic experiment was conducted with a plurality of humps with different flat part lengths, and the vehicle speed control effect and vehicle behavior differences of the humps with different flat part lengths were confirmed.
