It played "Mary Had a Little Lamb", and it was designed to keep people alert on this dangerous stretch of road. U.S. I-40 has these cuts or strips cut into the side of the road that help keep sleepdrivers from drifting off , i sometimes veer to the edge to hear the tone and feel the rumble , and i always knew this could be done - getting different notes by cutting different depth , length , and spacing. I imagine that changing the shape of the cuts could also yield possibly vocal like sounds too, wouldn't THAT be neat? Hearing the road speak through your tires "Reduce speed ahead" or something like? SCARY! LOL!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
