Are speed bumps located at pedestrian crossings considered obstacles if they comply with established regulations?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to road regulations, speed bumps at pedestrian crossings and transverse rumble strips are not considered obstacles if they have been installed in compliance with basic regulations from the Ministry of Development and aim to ensure user safety (usually by forcing speed reduction). An obstacle is generally defined as an unexpected element or one that hinders traffic without a valid regulatory function, whereas a regulatory speed bump is part of the road infrastructure.
