Get rid of ramps

WHY do we have so many ramps on our roads — even on main roads?

Travelling by bus in Dublin recently, I noted ramps the whole length of the Ballymun Road.

Where next? O’Connell Street? The M50? I’ve no problem with ramps in housing estates, but not on main roads. I know apologists for these hideous obstacles will say they deter boy-racers and joyriders, but they actually love revving up for the thrill of the ‘bump’ going over these ramps.
