Went to petrol station to check the air pressure of the tyres of my car. Found out that the pressure was >300 kPA. Recommended to put 230/210 kPA for front and rear if 1-3 passengers. They put >300 kPA!!! No wonder my car was so bumpy!

Wonder why pls check the tire pressure,mine was over 300KPA..very bumpy... there is a tag inside the drivers door that will tell you the recommended tire pressure. |

It's not good to over-inflate your tyres. Your car will be bumpy, but more importantly your safety will be compromised. The over-inflated tyres will have less grip as there is less contact surface between the tyre and the road.
