Abstract
To reduce the speed of vehicles before pedestrian crossings or as a warning for lowering the speed, vertical deflection devices or road profiles are placed transversely to the direction of travel. The type of profiles is different – speed bumps and humps with different height and length. Some of the profiles have the task of alerting the driver of changing conditions or potential danger - such are the rumble strips, while others aim to force the driving speed below 30 km/h. The amplitudes of the second profiles are considerably larger than those of the first and can cause significant stresses in the front suspension elements and its connections. The purpose of the study is to obtain information on the load on the front suspension components when passing over speed breakers.
