Traffic signs? Sure. But what was shown in the article was a replacement for confusing parking signs which would be much less critical for passing cars to immediately be able to discern.
I really think that regardless of how much you need to squint to make out a parking sign it would still be better than some of those monstrosities that have about 20 exceptions depending on the time of day.
- vacri 11y agoThe signs in the article photos will do nothing to reduce confusion around parking signs. They're all special-purpose Clearway signs. The intent of the sign is not in the e-ink part; that bit only gives you some timing information. As a result, it has no bearing on the problem of locations with multiple parking rules - it is still 'just another rule'. Have a look at their sample photos. Two of the photos have the sign by themselves. This clears up what kind of confusion? How are they better then a normal sign in this location? The remaining photo has two other signs, which work together fine with a non-e-ink version of the e-ink sign. Hardly a monstrosity. The only advantage the photographed sign really has is that the council can easily change the details on it between different roadwork events, without having to glue a new set of numbers on it.
