Starting from the dynamics of a bouncing ball in classical and quantum regime, we suggest a modification of the probability current in quantum mechanics. We consider the consequences of this generalization on the resulting velocity of a quantum particle in the de Broglie–Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics.
