If your vehicle is so fragile that you're afraid driving across a rumble strip is going to cause it to fail catastrophically, then you should not be driving it, period.
The rumble strip did not cause Glen's vehicle to fail, the rust did.

That *WAS* the original intent of having a mandated annual safety inspection. You know you neglect your vehicle, just admit it. You might change the oil on a schedule, maybe even grease the u-joints, but you don't do a thorough inspection of the structure and brake lines on your vehicle, ever! Nobody does.
