The Transport Minister says speed bumps on the Island are here to stay.
David Anderson was speaking after a recent article in the Times newspaper suggested that they may be doing more harm than good.
An AA study found that reducing speeds resulted in higher emissions from vehicles, and that the 30,000 'sleeping policemen' in London cause up to 500 deaths a year due to delays in ambulances reaching victims of heart attacks
However David Anderson (pictured) says restrictions have to be in place in order to ensure people drive at appropriate speeds in built up areas:
Warning over flare disposal after amenity site fire
Drug-driver jailed after passenger injured in crash
Suspended sentence for 56-year-old in cannabis supply case
Owner of a block of flats fined for failing to meet fire safety regulations
Review of taxi fares extended to assess impact of Middle East conflict
