VIDEO: Speed bump to end all speed bumps

As annoying as speed bumps can be, sometimes they're a necessary evil that can help keep speeds down in areas with high pedestrian traffic. Some would even like to install the bone-jarring rim benders on side streets to keep young folk from driving with reckless abandon in residential areas. A Deutsch-speaking, Volvo-hating CGI specialist decided to put his imagination to the test by coming up with a commercial with the "perfect" speed bump. The special effects look about as real as the tooth fairy, but it's kinda funny anyway. We have no idea what these European YouTube stars are saying, but we're guessing it has something to do with hating young kids who drive too fast. Hit the jump to view the 1:09 video in its entirety, and if you speak German, please tell us why they keep showing us video of their flowers.
