I'm a forty-one year old, husband of fourteen years and father of two boys. I am an apprentice woodworker and volunteer firefighter and EMT.
I am researching the invention process and trying to move ahead with ideas. This idea stuff, if taken to its rightful end, is not for the faint of heart.
I am a 50 year old Christian wife of over 31 years..mother..and grandmother. A self publlished Co/ author of a gang prevention educational resource book..Entitled "GANG WAR" (Non profit) An author of many childrens books self published and a self published prolific poet.. An inventor..an advocate for victims of crime..and have served as a Baptist missionary in the country of Brasil..I live to give and help others..
With the increasing desire for residential streets and other areas to discourage speeding, many neighborhoods have installed street "humps". These do a decent job but also hinder emergency vehicles access.
I propose a retracting speed bump design that is pre-built into a container for easy and quick installation. The retracting can be controlled by emergency vehicles automatically.
This could also be used in front of emergency stations or anywhere else imaginable.
