It's because they aren't like ordinary filament bulbs. They have an electrode producing an arc, so when you hit a bump the arc jumps momentarily.

Cool, I didn't know that.

I was gonna suggest, maybe check the wiring isnt taught tight through the rear cover, might be pulling on it when you hit a bump if the ballast was too move slightly - this happened with my Toledo.
