@Showroom7561 @poVoq This kind of stuff is a great option to force compliance.

In Japan I saw they put grids of lights down on the ground at road works. The lights move towards the driver in waves creating illusion of them moving much faster which cause them to ease back in accelerator. Genius!

@Showroom7561 @poVoq Speed bumps are becomming less effective due to the proliferation of off-road spec SUVs and Trucks as the family driver.

I used to live right opposite one and regularly saw these vehicles barrel over it at 3x the speed limit without the slightest hesitation.
