I'm not a fan of rumble strips. The excessive vibration can be really rough on the wrists when biking through the strips. But unlike the usual rumble strips like the ones found along ADB Avenue, the ones pictured above are wider and a bit thicker. These make for a very rough ride.
Rumble strips are meant to alert drivers of an upcoming stop, danger zone, or intersection. These strips are installed a few meters from the Aurora Boulevard - Balete Drive intersection. But this intersection already has a traffic light so I don't understand the need for these rumble strips. They're frivolous and a pain in the butt (actually, the wrists). This is an example of an infrastructure that is car-centric, and not bike-centric.
