I think people slow down on those because they have no clue what it is. You kinda can see through it, so they are concerned there's a hole, or it's like a speed bump or something. I don't think the vast majority of people are thinking about aiming at the horizontal bars or driving over washboard at speed at all.

That's one thing I've started noticing. The mentality of things people were thinking while driving 10-20 years ago is not the same as what people are thinking now. Whether that's technology as a distraction/taking over what a driver must be aware of or know, environment in general, education in general etc. I don't know. But the damn things are great bubbles and people are happy to be isolated from the world inside of them.
