Incredible Road Technologies That Are Insanely Cool

Wow, click baited again, where is the thumbnail tech that got me to watch this vid in the first place?

Where is the thumbnail/splash screen in the video?

7:49 The pedestrian crossing barrier that when someone crashes into sends shards of glass rocketing into the pedestrian is fantastic!😂

What good was the robot gas pumper if it didn’t put lid back on??

Some of the roadway technology highlighted has been around for 40+ years. Some of explanations of what they are doing is flat wrong!

10:20 That isn’t asphalt 10:20 , it’s concrete. Please watch the videos before commenting

The helmet/traffic light device is pointless. The riders they showed merely placed their helmet on their head without doing up the strap. Unstrapped helmets don't save lives.

16:13 Umm, where's the fuel cap?🤔

Not in this video my favorite genius move. I observe a brand new road being built. When they're done it's smooth as silk. 30 days later they realize "Oh we didn't put in a drainage system" or "We need to lay cable for the traffic lights" I guess you can assume what happens next.

16:03 One machine, 19 supervisors. Yup, it definitely saves labor.

This video is just too tiring to listen to with the background music changing for each clip.

I knew it was a fake thumbnail. Skimmed through to minimize wasted time.

No matter how amazingly self-sufficient road building machines they make, there will always be the guys standing on the side watching.

16:16 Lucky the car owner removed the gas cap. Doesn’t look like the robot has that ability.

Highway trucks in Germany don't really recharge (they can, but it is not the main point) They drive off those powerlines like trams or trains. It uses batteries to deliver beyond that highway power rail and has a range extender too i.e. internal combustion engine (which doubles as a heater in winter). It is a hybrid with 3 types of functionality: power rail, battery, combustion engine

That holographic stop sign on the Sydney Harbor Tunnel has reduced the number of over-height trucks entering the tunnel. However, just last week another truck driver hit every overhead barrier, ignored 200m of flashing yellow lights and sirens and proceeded through the hologram to get jammed in the tunnel. Loss of license, loss of vehicle, $50k fine to the driver and $250k fine to the company, but it keeps happening. It would seem they need to divert over-height trucks in gravel pits with wire cables. They are not getting their truck back, so the truck may as well be destroyed instead of destroying the tunnel.

They have laid pipes under driveways to pump hot water to melt the snow and ice for almost as long as there have been driveways.

gonna report it as spam - thumbnail is not in the video

I recall reporting on the prototype of this "Truck Arrestor" over 35 years ago for Local TV. Why does everyone now consider them a new idea?

Gas filling robot: a big fail until it can remove & reinstall the twist-on cap. Those are necessary for the engine to run properly!!
