Sixth Sense wants to better stimulate drivers’ hearing and touch, because sight is certainly the sense most used for moving about town. Using the Braille system and sound stripes, the author designed a horizontal signage system to offer numerous ways to sound code road signs. Even if sight is fundamental for traveling in the city, we don’t realize that more valuable sensations often arrive from other receptors.

That’s fantastic! It would add cost to road building, so who knows if it will ever be done, but it’s still an ingenues idea.
This has been done in France. If you drive the speed limit you get a pleasant tune. If you speed you get a horrendous sound.
are you trying to get blind people to drive?!?!! :psyduck:
Maybe a good idea
