maybe just ban cars from london roads...and hey presto, no break dust 
New research by Dr Ian Mudway @CentreEnvHealth and colleagues @KingsCollegeLon and @imperialcollege shows how break dust pollution, an increasing cause for concern, can affect the immune system https://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2020/01/09/do-have-london-throat-scrapping-speed-bumps-could-help/?WT.mc_id=tmg_share_tw … via @TelegraphSci

Still get brake dust from lorries and buses. Need toelectrify road transport which will largely eliminate friction brake use due to regerative braking combined with VW new friction brake system which reduces brake dust by 80%.

I've had issue with speed bumps for years. If you consider the environmental and air quality impact, particularly in dense urban areas from exhaust emissions and particulates, you'd never install them.

Oddly enough, it’s not compulsory to brake before and accelerate after each speed bump. Just drive over them at a smooth, low speed.

There are 42k speedbumps on UK roads. At 50m separation thats 2100 miles of speedbump-calmed streets. Which is 3% of unclassified urban roads. Per this research, worst case, speedbumps could only be responsible for about 5% of brake dust in towns. More research needed!

Electric cars regenerate power. So brake discs last 100k plus. 1/5 of use. PS. Speed bumps have a reason.

My EV discs actually corroded and pitted/scored through lack of use over 5 years and needed to be replaced. That’s how effective regeneration of up to 43kw can be, you can just drive largely on the throttle.

1) you mean brake dust? 2) that's an illegal profile for a public road speed bump.
