The max height for speed humps is 100mm. Its always worth measuring humps if you suspect damage to the underside as they can be set too high - if so then you can claim from the highway authority. I have been told that some of the gouges you see in humps are due to sump plugs on standard ride height cars that can get too low under braking. Both our Mercs have hump scrapes to the undershielding so it goes to prove that the standard humps are generally too high (even at 100mm)
