China S-shaped Speed Block


The local government in China’s ShanXi province using a speed bumps like the rest of the world, authorities decided to build a miniature version of the 'Great Wall' in the form of a 30 meter (about 100 feet) long and 2.7 meter wide (approx 9 feet) ‘S’ shaped road barricaded with a 60 cm tall cement wall (around 2 feet).

The speed block has surpassed the local government’s expectations as not only did it slow down drivers, but it has actually created massive traffic jams. Due to the road is so narrow and twisty, a large number of drivers have ended up scrapping their vehicles on the cement wall.
