Yes, sometimes you can travel more comfortably going faster on a corrugated 
road, but it is risky when you come to a corner, because the physics are like 
aquaplaning.

So if an unsurfaced road has a max speed of 100kmh (normal here)
my speed may be 25 to 40kmh in the wet and even greater than 100kmh in the dry 
in daylight.
