    Again if you can justify the troll comment that would be great.

    The photo is not the problem, I'm sure you get my drift whether or not the picture is picture perfect or not. Scotsbob & Alastairq had no problem with answering my question.

    You saying it will scrape at any speed then?

    Have a read of http://www.ukroads.org/webfiles/tal07-96.pdf and see if the hump is the correct dimensions. If it is, then there's not much you can do about it.
    If it sticks, force it.
    If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.

    Hi, here are the photos.

    I inspected the hump more today, cars on the side of the hump
    that turn left into the road are fine, those that turn in from the other side of the road going over the centre of the hump end up getting scraped. Almost all vehicles are getting scraped apart from vans,4x4, 6 seaters.

    The only way to avoid the problem is to slow rite down and swing slightly to the left of the hump [ when turning in from other side of the road]

    Some vehicles turning out of the road are also getting back bumpers scraped.
