Also at what speed should I (or my daughter) be driving to test the bouncing?

Assuming these are typical speed bump that are short and abrupt, that sounds like a good plan. I don't think the longer speed ramps like you might find at an airport would be very effective. The normal speed bump speed should work fine. Is that around 5-10 mph?
