Musical roads 

Hey Quester's hope you all are doing well, I am here with a thread series in which we will talk about amazing technology around the world. In the last two parts we had a talk about flying car and the world's fastest shoes, today we are going to talk about the road which sings. 

There are some specially built roads in different parts of the world which produce musical waves whenever a vehicle is driven on them only at the right speed. These roads were introduced to encourage safe driving and to enhance the driving experience of the travellers. 

Such musical roads are known to present in Hungary, Japan, South Korea, the United States, China, Iran, Taiwan, Indonesia, the United Arab Emirates and France, Denmark and the Netherlands and Argentina. 

How these roads work or produce musical effect:- 

A musical road is a road, or section of a road, which when driven over causes a tactile vibration and audible rumbling that can be felt through the wheels and body of the vehicle. This rumbling is heard within the car as well as the surrounding area, in the form of a musical tune. Each note is produced by varying the spacing of strips in, or on, the road. For example, an E note requires a frequency of around 330 vibrations a second. Therefore, strips 2.4 in (61 mm) apart will produce an E note in a vehicle travelling at 45 mph (72 km/h). 

Here's a demo video for you all to experience which type of music such roads produce. 

Isn't it interesting 🤔 what are your thoughts about these roads, should such roads be implemented in India as well?
