This is atrocious for tire consumption and wear. Which tires are one of the top major contributors to pollution.
There are 3 musical roads in Hungary now, but they exist because you can steal EU/government funds with them easily. You can invoice much higher prices if you add extras like these.
Locals who live nearby hate them, and are lobbying for removal. You hear the melody if only one car is playing the song. If multiple cars driving on the painting you just hear some cacophony. Here is a guy recording next to the road, you can see it can get annoying very quickly: https://youtu.be/G5AxAc1W6qk?t=27
Local joke party placed musical road signs on some very bad quality roads, but with metal song titles, like this:
Advertisers and Marketers are hurrying now as to how to make advertisements on the road in this fashion and on the main road. You fucking wait.
You’ll have a flattening tire and your car drives over this particular groove and it’s going to be something for AAA insurance or something.
There’s several of these things all over the world, they are as old as road themselves.
There’s one in New Mexico that plays America the Beautiful.
There are a number of roads like this in Japan as well.
Seems like an interesting way to get people to slow down (people will want to time the melody not just hear a sudden clash of notes), but it’s a bit irritating to see an AI-generated article being posted here.
It’s frustrating to read this. Repetitive and verbose, like a student trying to pad out their homework to meet a word count.
OP is only linking to articles from that website, so they’re probably trying to promote their AI slop in order to get more ad revenue
This is hardly anything new or groundbreaking?
Groundgrooving.
Can it ball wonderground?
Can’t watch the video right now; does this one get the frequencies right? Unlike the one in California that Tom Scott featured in a video?
It’s a different song that I don’t recognize, but it does sound correct for whatever it’s trying to be, if that makes sense
It’s a well known Hungarian song from the 90s, “Route 67”, the joke is it’s painted on the actual route 67.
Video from the article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM5oX0KbtUw
This is the original song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE4aAQCghGs
Here is a translation of the lyrics: https://queensbookasylum.com/2019/10/21/music-monday-67-es-ut-road-67-by-republic/
the joke is it’s painted on the actual route 67.
I couldn’t find it in the linked article either, but unfortunately it’s less jokey, as in, the vocalist that also sang this song passed away tragically early in 2011, and apart from the systemic corruption, it was also made as a tribute to him.
i imagine this would be fun once when novel and then very irritating every other time
