Some of these products look interesting/useful. However since I live in Canada I'm concerned how effective any of the lights, reflectors and road divisions actually sitting on the surface of the road would be in winter especially after a heavy snow and a quick pass from snow plow. Even built in asphalt speed bumps don't last that well.
We have a simpler solution in Stockholm, for the exact same effect: just put up a red spotlight aimed at the the curb.
Trudeau will figure a way to control you even more
Canada already has indentations in the road and a reflector can be put inside the indentation that can be seen by the driver. The snowplough goes right over so it won’t damage. It’s more expensive and seldom used. Most common is the rumble strips on the side of a highway that are also indentations
Some of these products look interesting/useful. However, since I live in america, I'm concerned how effective any of them would be considering our dense population of fucking idiots.
We should install defrosting cabling on most roads. At least around any specialized markings and equipment.
the vast number of people walking around staring at their phones without any sense of what is going on around them is hilarious and alarming at the same time.
Makes for some funny videos on youtube (as long as no one is hurt badly).
Yup. People don't experience their immediate lives anymore. My nephews can't even focus on a movie.
@@MrGriff305 That's sad. My nephews (12 &13) couldn't read a handwritten Christmas card this year.
@@tchevrier Well damn. Maybe they should go to a special school?
Natural selection
The most interesting thing I learned today is that people feel that some plastic things between the cycle lane and the car lane make it a protected bike lane. In the netherlands the bike lane would have at least a meter of separation on such a big road.
Completely agree, this won't do anything to protect cyclists. If anything it would keep cars from parking illegally in the bike lane though. The biggest benefit I can see to this system is its ease of installation. It looks like you can install long stretches of these barriers very quickly, which means that cities can experiment with different bike lane designs without having to fully commit to a permanent structure. A lot of times, cities are resistant to change because they can't visualize how it would turn out.
I think it looks dangerous. We don't need this in the Netherlands. Here, with driving lessons, we learn the rules not to park on a bike lane or drive a car there.
I actually think it's good to have them on there. It's nerve racking to be on the same side of the road as a biker.
@@nahianchoudhury8523 Then you better never drive a car in The Netherlands. There are cyclists everywere.
@Alicia. the thing is, these bikers most kf the times ride way too far from the curb. It's so annoying.
That road side barrier is brilliant, the one you see at 6:40 it is build about 12 miles from where I live and it was a national test pilot to see how good it is...turns out they are so good that they can't replace the old ones fast enough with this system, especially on bridges and overpasses.
its a lot more expensive than traditionnal barrier, more metal, more plastic, its higher, and uglier, but in dangerous curb where you have truck, it could be life saving. and is it innovative? on the road maybe, because old tires, and big stuff in ropes/plastic is used since hundred of years for help efficiently boat docking :D
@@eriklerougeuh5772 Is it uglier? That's pretty subjective. While the traditional barrier won't win any design awards, it is familiar. In time the rollers will be too.
@@robneff7084 Yeah I don't think anything about roads are pretty anyways. It may become popular but I don't know the price comparison
So much money spent trying to combat stupid. Stupid always finds a way to win. Stupid is genius.
5:53 can we just appreciate how the road side barrier just tanks an entire bus without going through and also mainly keeping its rollers intact? It could probably tank another bus after that one.
Based on your word choice "tanks" I'm going to go out on a limb and say you play MMOs. I'm a former WoW addict. Been 5 years clean and sober. Hearing the word tank almost triggered me to relapse. 😜
It flings an out-of-control vehicle back into traffic.
@@oeliamoya9796 tanks are in no way related to mmo's
docking boat technology >:
@@loggingbeans he wasn't using the word to refer to the combat vehicle, but rather the gaming notion of someone/thing that can absorb large amounts of potential damage and survive
As an Australian myself I have seen the lights for pedestrians crossings in the cities a fair bit now
The cell phone thing, is a self solving, Darwin Award situation.
Exactly, if you are so addicted to your phone that you never look up , even when crossing the street, the problem is somewhere else.
Is this an ad for China?
Yes it is. The CCP pay big money :D And also an ad for the WHO (gates) plus some BS that they push with Greta (that girl that has an boat of carbonfiber and fly's with private jets)
I was like, that looks just like the Marquette interchange in Milwaukee. Sure enough. 🤣
If people get into an accident because they can's be bothered to look up from their phone while walking I'll call it natural selection.
It's artificial selection, since all the forms of smartphone addiction are intentionally engineered by the companies that make the phones and apps.
Yeah, it's the modern day sabertooth tiger!
You wouldn't walk along a treacherous mountian path while glued to your smart phone, so I don't understand why you would do it in the middle of a large city.
0:54 top of screen - At the very end of the clip, as soon as the red car clears the intersection, two guys cross against the light. One is looking at his phone. Can't fix stupid.
The pedestrian isn't the one making the situation dangerous, the cars are
One question about the Spotflex Sprayplast what happens the first time a snow plow clears the road?
4:23 This "Dynamic warning system" (or something that looks very similar) exist for over dozens of years in Europe!!!!
That's cool on the ground until it snows
Nice to see lots of Aussie inventions here.
Now, it’s a while since I did physics, but I think you can only create inertia. It would absorb momentum
The spot flex sprayplast at 7:30 I don't think would work real well in places where it snows because the plows would scrape those off wouldn't they?
That drainage system in the curb is a good idea until you realize that the main problem with the existing system already is clogs from road debris
The climate is always changing.
A similar system with charging electric busses have been used in Gothenburg for a few years now.
And Turku
Something like that has been in many US cities since before I left for China. In many cities there are also fully autonomous buses or shuttles.
a lot of these clips are *old* oddly enough
also the entire west coast North America has charging stations guaranteed every 25-50 mile now...see West Coast Green Highway project.
In Make-believe land they have a similar system for the people waiting for the bus. When they sit down on the bench to wait for their bus it triggers a barber grooming machine to lower and give waiting riders a free haircut or a beard trim. Problem with it has been the calibration. Sometimes the blades cut a way too close which leaves the person missing their skin.or in worse cases, down to the bone. So for now it only exists in Freddy Krueger's Elm street bus stop and Yabba dabba doo Flintstones - the untold stories.😄😜
The bike lane things are cute but they won’t work in regions that get snowfall. You can’t effectively plow(with typical equipment) around those devices. You won’t be able to push the snow over to the side.
nobody is going to be out cycling in the snow anyway, so I wouldn't be too concerned.
@@Fanta.... what? It has nothing to do with cycling in the snow but being able to push the snow off the adjacent vehicle travel lanes.
I'm pretty sure the dots for lane markings aren't going to survive a snow plow either.
@@darrennew8211 we’ve actually had those where I live and they do commonly pop off when plows hit them. They’ve stopped using them after they realized about 5 years was the max they lasted before all gone.
@@TsunauticusIV Yep. In SoCal, they're bumps. In Pennsylvania, they dig into the road and put reflectors below the surface of the road.
4:10 this is a really smart & simple idea. Make the signs light up at the appropriate speed so your car should be passing each sign as it lights up. That would let people driving on dark roads know exactly how fast to take the turn because your brain would interpret the lights in a similar way to seeing a car take the turn in daylight.
We already have the technology to hugely cut road accidents. They're called trains. Fewer drivers = fewer accidents
Agreed. I hate seeing innovation used to avoid solving the actual problem.
Love how most of these inventions become unnecessary if people were actually good drivers 😂
If I'm walking, my phone is in my pocket, if I am chewing gum, I am sitting down
This is one of if not my favorite TechZone videos. Nice.
"And is available in several colors" hahahah that was a cute touch XD
1:51 and 9:10 That will work right up to the point when someone crashes into it and damages it. 4:10 I have already seen this on the road. It is a good use of lights. What is better is applying this to stop signs (I have seen that too). 5:54 This is a great product.
Happy New Year...this is so cool...thank you for sharing!!!
Most of these seem expensive and the advantages seem to be small.
All of these inventions are amazing. There are some very smart people around the world.👏👏
I see my hometown in the blinking traffic signs section. We have used these for at least 10 years, especially on that interchange of 3 freeways. Lights appear on stop signs and high traffic pedestrian crossings in residential areas. They are extremely effective and solar powered. A community located on top of a mountain even has lit indicators along the edge of the road, because it is a very dark and winding road without trees for reference and a very steep drop off the sides you don't want to go down.
A lot of these ideas don't take into account snow plows.
Those moving barriers would be great for roads with protestors. Just wipe them off.
They need to be quicker though like windshield wipers.
I don't like those led curb warnings for tech gadget geeks who refuse to join the real world, even at a moment where their safety could be at risk. Natural selection and such.
We already operate electric buses with pantographs at both end stations in Belgium and they work really well
That Wave Delineator would never work in the southern US. Certain people aim for things like that and never get caught.
Woah i saw the flashing highway curb signs on my way driving into Pittsburgh! (Or at least something that looks similar)
That road barrier is amazing!
Such a heavy investment to prevent zombies from being run over!!!
I like the idea behind the bike lane barriers, but they won't work anywhere that needs snow plows. The heavy, packed snow pushed aside by the plow would not be kind to them, unfortunately. Snowplows would also damage the road markings and the solar-powered "catseyes".
Snow ploughs are a good point. But most cyclists go away in winter and come out in summer. I was thinking more along the lines of street sweepers. If the cars kick all the debris into the cycle lane and the cycle lane cannot be cleaned. Cyclists have tiny narrow tires and no suspension. They will avoid all slippy muck and colonoscopy inducing bumps and consider themselves forced out of the cycle lane and into the road.
@@lukeorlando4814 They might not go away if the bike infrastructure was properly cleared
Less cars in public space, less problems to solve. Period.
The side drainage is realistic, simple, and just a more efficient way of doing it. I can see it being implemented where needed. Same with the rollers. It actually improves safety.
The Netherlands has fully separated bikpaths in the villages and cities the bike protection might help outside town centers but I feel the roller barriers is more usefull the the separated bikepath fence
Only a solid physical barrier will matter to cyclist in the U.S. Motorist will ignore anything less completely.
Yea what the US thinks are great infrastructure (paint and at most plastic) are completely useless.
I visited Amsterdam a few years back. I was warned by the hotel concierge to be wary of the cyclists as opposed to the vehicles. That was so true. The cyclists are everywhere.
@@krane15 our barriers have most of the time 1 a row of cars parked next to the road. Then nothing or some greenery area and the the bikepath. And that small bump into the grass is for sure breaking the bottom of you're car even touching it feels like you're car gets broken in the process so yeah.
@@krane15 Agreed, as both ZeroEnigma and Salty Seattle Driver regularly catch on camera, American drivers tend to think of cyclists as _competition to be run over._
Only technology I want to see is one to patch potholes so cheap and efficient that any city or town can't afford not to patch them.
How well will many of these innovations work on snow covered roads, and how well will they survive when highway snow plow scrapes over the top of them?
Basically a technology to solve a problem caused by technology
The ETI roller system looks clever to dissipate the energy of a car/truck crash, but would be an hazard for bikes and motorbikes! The rider would be like "rolled" into the barrier!
Parking barriers should be something useful, like foldable benches.
Some good stuff in there. I like the spotflex stuff the best.
If people are always looking down then they don't deserve to be warned! Your safety is your responsibility. If you are dumb enough not to look where you're going you deserve what you get!
New Technologies are pretty beautiful but very important and useful! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They need the speed bumps during school drop off and pick up times. Wish they could make a system where it just automatically pops out of the road during those times because I'm sure that would be a hassle to do 2X everyday on a long stretch.
8:25 A similar thing was tested in a stretch of road locally that was a known risk to drivers new to area for its blind bends and poor visibility. So the council decided to give something like these a go. Millions later, and they ended up replacing them. The trouble was that the new very bright lights were shining in the rear view mirrors of all drivers. The distraction and constant light in the mirror were the cause for twice that many crashes for two years after they were installed.
Getting stuck with your bicycle pedals in those bike road barriers...whoa bad design
I liked the improved storm drain.
I hate that the solution to pedestrians being forced to walk among what is essentially fast moving traffic is MORE lights and not restructuring our hellscape of cars overtaking people spaces.
The more we make allowances for people's ineptitude the more inept people will become
Letting inept people die doesn't make them less inept. It simply deprives society of whatever utility they did have. A bad driver might be a reliable worker, a good parent, or the next major scientific breakthrough. Your definition of "inept" is too one-dimensional.
@@institches2750 What a brilliant reply. Seriously, it’s very rare to read a reply as well considered as that.
@@institches2750 Alternatively they could be a drain on society and we are better off without them? Both arguments work just as well. I do tend to agree with the original commenter though. Maybe people could just pull their heads out of their asses for a moment before blindly wandering in to traffic because social media 24/7.........
@@institches2750 your assuming that running off the road or walking into traffic while distracted by a phone will always result in death? Consequences can provide valuable lessons
@@nickmaclachlan5178 Wonder where and when people have used that kind of argument to get rid of people that were a "drain on society"
i LOVE YOR VIDEOS AMAZING GADGETS
They should try those Korean traffic barriers here in Boston traffic! The drag racing on 93 or the fatalities on 495 would be at the very least reduced.
These roads are safer than my house
Have you ever tried AK 47?
People have less accidents on the road, mostly cause when people are in their car, the car protects them from danger, especially if they come visiting and do something stupid or piss me off and don't have the car shield
🤣
Go sleep their safely 😂
Until they download an update.
Those flashing chevrons were installed at a curve near my house. I don't know if it is making a difference. Even recently after that installation, there was a crash. And there were a couple of crashes within several weeks of installing the wood and metal barrier a few years ago. I know because I walk by often and the barrier was all smashed up. I guess people just crashed into the boulders and the concrete wall before that. It's crazy though how people crash so much there. Maybe that helps to reduce the street racing. Silver lining.
There are those motion sensing chevron on 2 spots on a curvy road in the Jersey Pinelands. I guess the local rescue squads got tired of pulling cars out of the pines
They need a speedbumpt that increases in size the faster the car approches.
portable speed bump.. Would also be good around road works and areas that are temporary restrictions. When people are working... deploy it
They'd leave it at their arse on day one. I do agree with you though.
How can you absorb inertia? - did you mean kinetic energy.
Most of these will never work anywhere where snowplows are used.
i like how at: "there are a few things to get a gmm sled i
Did you have a stroke
Local authorities fighting the economic decline cause by the local authorities would be the right way to say it.
Automatic barriers on the roads. what could possibly go wrong?
Yeah handy, looking always down and therefore sighns on the ground. Then those people will not observe their surrounding at all!
How is that parking lock thing vandal proof? It's a single piston that's bolted into the ground. Break the piston and it stops working. Unscrew the bolts, and you can simply remove it.
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
"Snow melting technology." I've now heard it all
they should rename "smartphone" into "dumbphone"
For the very first one, the real solution is for people to stop staring at their phones and see the world around them. Not sure why we have to spend more money on creative solutions because people cannot be bothered to look up from a handheld device that they have an addiction to.
Instead of having a conventionally separated highway with many lanes, could use the moving barrier tech to manage flow of traffic better. Peak hour more than 50% of traffic is heading into the city.
About the speed bump: You can see it move when only one vehicle passes. Where will the speed bump end up during the day when thousands of vehicles have passed?
They have switching lanes in Chicago on the Express Lanes for the Expressways. They'll open on one end and close on the other depending on the time of day to accommodate Rush Hour traffic
The barrier for bicycles... why would we consider these in the Netherlands? Bicycle infrastructure here has long since surpassed this point.
I just want more walkable cities.
Netherlands does not have to use the bike barriers, as we have dedicated roads for them, separated from the main traffic
It is ridiculous that we have to come up with tech because people are to lazy to look up....
Natural selection I say...
For the road side barrier, what happens if there’s fast traffic coming?? Do the drivers crash? Does the mechanism get damaged??
What, why is the fast charging station a new technology, that's literally been around for years
Here in the United States they got the best bang for your buck system in use and it's been that way for probably a hundred years. Be sure you got a pair because you're going to need it because you'll be riding right with the traffic with no special Lane.
YaHeyDer Milwaukee~!!! That is the biggest, craziest cluster of winding bridged roads. It’s almost mind boggling how it works.
I believe future EV cars won't have to recharge but rather have battery pack stations..and switch batteries from empty to full...i' can"t picture how they will be able to have enough single chargers for every car...especially in cities where more cars park in the streets than garages..
sad having to put the safety tech for crossing a road on the floor due to phones
I love this music *vibes with the music*
For those of us who use the metric system, can any imperial measurements that are mentioned have the metric equivalent shown on the screen. Like pounds to kilograms, miles to kilometres, fahrenheit to Celsius, etc. That would be appreciated
I'm in Australia and I've never heard of those led panels for traffic lights
Those traffic barriers are an excellent idea. If they use recycled materials they can also get rid of excess wastes
Recycling? Never heard of it
2:40 Motorcycle = win
The wave delineators are in use in Christchurch NZ.
I liked how the German product was very specific, with references to all this data and an emphasis on efficiency
Probably because it was alot more legit and thats how you sell it
The chucks of broken up roadway always present on Michigan roads would prevent the Traffic Tech Auto Barriers from moving!
You videos are amazing 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
8:57 that song gave me flashbacks
The first one shouldn't be used anywhere, it's reinforcing irresponsible behaviour
Imagine chinese hypercharging electric buses. Liveleak will go wild
