I wonder if some sort of speed ramps or forcing them to make a detour would slow them down enough that it wouldn't be worth their while.

I see them do it all the time on my way in from Blaris to Belfast....they don't even make much ground after it all.  It's a c*&%s trick.

FFS I have seen the odd driver wearing buds which I assumed were to take call on their phone but I have never seen anyone wearing the big cans. You're right though they should be took off the road for being stupid.
