For my part I wish the council would get rid of the speed bump outside my bedroom window. It does not slow down the idiots or people who do not own the vehicle they are driving - they are still speeding. Meanwhile everyone else brakes and then accelerates again which is noise and fume pollution.
It might be easier than you think to get that removed, especially if you have any cracks in the house...

Get a structural engineer in to record the tremors and assess the damage, then sue the council for the damage. You will be amazed at how quickly those speed humps will be removed.
Speed humps wreck the tyres and suspension of cars, leading to crashes, and the earthquakes from vehicles passing over them destroy the substructure of roads and damages adjacent walls and buildings.
