    go on an angle - drive slowly (1 st front wheel go on hump, before it goes down the hump, turn the opposite until the front 2nd wheel go up) then the back whell will follow...(u should try to be in straight position once the frontpass the hump) but u gotta go slowly bro..... also depends how low is ur car...

    if the wheel is under the fender.. then u will hit most of the time... but wont be as bad as going straight for the hump... ... - usually this will keep the headers or cat from scratching.. and the muffler..go slow u b fine....hope that helps.

    too low = too much hassle :P

    I try and get the left hand wheels on a flat surface to the left of the speed hump, then let the right hand side "lift" the car over the hump. Driveways are the worst though.

    If that is not possible, use the angle technique mentioned previously.
