The Near Miss Nobody Talks About

Most speeding complaints start the same way.

"We haven't had an accident yet, but..."

• Staff are concerned about vehicle speeds.
• Residents have noticed drivers rushing through the site.
• Visitors are cutting corners or accelerating through car parks.
• Pedestrians are feeling uncomfortable crossing traffic areas.

These are often warning signs that shouldn't be ignored.

The good news is that many traffic safety issues can be addressed before they become incidents.

Speed humps, rumble bars, wheel stops, and clear traffic management measures can help create a safer environment for everyone using your site.

The best time to improve safety is before an accident happens.

Too many drivers using your car park as a shortcut?

This North Lakes commercial complex was experiencing constant through traffic and speeding vehicles cutting between two streets. The solution was simple.

We supplied and installed a 60mm high flat top polyethylene speed hump across the full width of the driveway, slowing traffic to a safer speed while helping discourage rat running through the property.

The installation was completed in around 60 minutes with no driveway closure required, allowing customers to continue using the site as normal.

Need to slow traffic in your commercial complex, shopping centre, industrial site or body corporate?

Day 1: The Hidden Cost of Speeding in Car Parks

Most car park accidents don't happen at high speed.

They happen because drivers are travelling just a little too fast for the environment around them.

A vehicle moving at 20km/h instead of 10km/h can dramatically reduce a driver's reaction time around pedestrians, reversing vehicles, and blind corners.

Speed humps provide a simple physical reminder that encourages drivers to slow down before an accident occurs.

If your car park has near misses, complaints, or speeding issues, it may be time to take a closer look.

Mid-morning at a Queensland retirement village. A delivery van turns off the main road and picks up speed down the entry driveway. Long, straight, nothing in the way. The driver is not reckless. He is just driving the way the road lets him.
Ahead of him is the covered arrivals area. Reception. The busiest spot in the village. A resident with a walking frame is crossing to a waiting car. A staff member is helping someone out of a passenger seat. The incoming lane runs straight through this space. Not past it. Through it.
If you manage a village or aged care facility, you know the feeling reading that. You have watched a car move faster than it should through an area full of people who cannot move quickly, and probably told yourself you would get to it.
Speeding is rarely a driver problem. It is a road problem. This driveway gave nobody a reason to slow down. So we built reasons in: humps early to set the tone, more either side of the entrance, each one visible from the last. We kept the drainage flowing and capped every exposed end so nothing became a trip hazard.
By that afternoon, residents said they felt safer.

The building manager raised it almost as a footnote. The central gate stopper at the basement entry had been replaced again. Third time in eighteen months.
Each replacement was a small invoice on its own. Together, the line item was starting to attract questions at committee meetings. The contractor's explanation never went past "wear and tear."
The gate stopper was a symptom, not the problem.
The real issue was how vehicles entered. Cars turning off the street carried too much speed down the driveway, cut the corner, and tracked through the centre of the lane, straight over a centrally located stopper. The same behaviour also created a head-on risk with exiting vehicles and a hazard for pedestrians.
The committee had been paying to repair the damage. Nobody had addressed the driving that caused it.
We fixed it with two devices together: a speed hump to drop entry speed, and rumble bars fitted as a lane guide to hold vehicles to their own side. Since then the stopper has stayed aligned and the repeat cost has stopped.

The agenda item reads "car park safety." It is the fourth item. The chair expects to spend ten minutes on it.
Forty-five minutes later the room is still going. One owner wants to know why the compressed speed hump at the entry has sat unreplaced for three years. Another wants the committee's liability position if something goes wrong before it is fixed. A third asks whether the insurer knows.
Every committee that has not prepared for this has this conversation. Every committee that has prepared gets through it in ten minutes.
The difference is documentation. A written professional assessment with photos, a staged remediation plan with specific costings, and a clear answer to what the committee is doing and when it will be done.
That documentation does not take months. An assessment takes about 45 minutes on site and produces a written report within 5 business days. From assessment to AGM-ready usually takes two to three weeks, which makes May and June the window, since most SEQ AGMs fall between May and August.
The four questions and how to answer them:

While the Reserve Bank of Australia kept interest rates on hold, they decided not to take the same approach with speeding.

Speed Humps Australia recently helped improve traffic safety at the RBA's secure Craigieburn car park with a durable speed control solution designed to slow vehicles and create a safer environment for staff and visitors.

Whether it's a commercial car park, shopping centre, industrial facility or secure site, we can help you take control of speeding before it becomes a problem.

Ask a strata manager where the highest-risk zone in a residential car park is, and most point to the entry ramp, the reversing zones, or the crossing near the lift lobby.
Visitor parking rarely makes the list. It should be at the top.
The reason is behaviour. Residents who use the same car park daily develop automatic patterns. They know the sightline gaps, the turning radius at the bottom of the ramp, when the lift crossing gets busy. A visitor has none of that. They are reading signs, looking for a bay, and managing whatever brought them in, all at once.
Research into unfamiliar environments shows something most people find counterintuitive: drivers in unfamiliar car parks do not slow down. They drive at habitual speeds with reduced awareness. Add delivery drivers and tradespeople under time pressure, working to commercial speeds, and visitor parking becomes the widest gap between the risk and the controls in place.
Most complexes apply resident-designed controls to that zone. When an incident happens there, that gap is exactly what gets examined.

Can you install a speed hump on a private street in Australia?

The answer is often yes—but it's not as simple as purchasing a speed hump and bolting it down.

Private streets typically involve body corporates, shared ownership arrangements, council requirements, community consultation, and ongoing maintenance responsibilities. Getting the process wrong can create compliance issues, liability concerns, and disputes between residents.

Before proceeding, it's important to understand what approvals may be required, how to gain community support, and which traffic calming solution is best suited to your site.

We've put together a practical guide covering everything you need to know:
