What I find coolest are the speed enforcing traffic lights in lots of villages in Portugal.
Your speed gets measured at the town limit and if you go above there is a traffic light in a few hundred meters guaranteed to go red. If you stay below, it will not light up.
Much better system than the constant speed bumps like they have in Mexico or Ghana.
- brookst 4y agoHow do those lights work if there are multiple cars on the road?
- jnsaff2 4y agoIf any is above limit all will get red light and presumably some peer pressure might apply for the offender.
- mywittyname 4y agoHow do you "peer pressure" another driver?
- jnsaff2 4y agoUmm you are not driving much? There's like 50 shades of 'pressure' in traffic, to name just a few: - staring angrily - shaking fist - various gestures involving middle finger - shouting - using the horn liberally - flashing high beams - driving really close to you - bumping into you - blocking you - smash your window with something - draw a gun - fist fight - etc etc Some people also feel embarrassment by making others wait because something obvious you did.
