Speed tables are very effective. That also means that if you lobby for them, everyone will rally against them because they are effective. The fire department will speak against them. Delivery guys will speak against them. Then they'll get some spokesperson from DPW to say that they cannot put speed tables on "arterial roads" (which is code for "I want cars to drive fast there, I don't care the consequences").

They'll just be ramps for the dirt bikes.

My car and delivery truck's brakes and suspension argue against speed humps and raised pedestrian tables. The brick crosswalks are bad enough.
