You can think of things that are stringent as being tight and constraining, just as being bound limits movement and freedom. Stringent is often used when discussing safety and tightly defined rules. For example: The stringent (strict, defined) safety rules were designed to prevent accidents at the plant.
do we have a stringent definition?
Usage Examples: The new requirements for obtaining a driver's license are much more stringent than in the past. (strict, exacting) After undergoing stringent testing, the new engine was declared ready for marketing. (rigorous) The company had to put in some stringent security measures, after it was discovered that some employees were embezzling funds. (strict, severe) It is important to have stringent safety regulations in industries where there is a potential for danger to the workers. (strict, rigid)" (vocabulary-vocabulary.com)
Note: No mention of coquette's prohibition of 'bumps'. :-(
