If the speed bump caused the accident, can Wilmington be held accountable? Before you say "no", it was the speeder's fault, remember the cop that was killed a while back on Shipyard answering a call. He swerved to miss a box in the road, lost control and hit a tree. The guy the other cops were chasing was charged with his death. So, ponder your answer before you post it. My point is, if the speed bump had not been there, would they have been alive today regardless of their speeding?
