I do have to ride over it occasionally if there is debris or a parked car, but it's not too bad. I've never hit it by accident.
The interrupted strips actually make more of an impression - mostly on, but a different feel every couple of seconds or so. Like a rat-a-tat-tat. There is no way a car can miss them.
