Dutch reveal glow in the dark road.

We need to ramp up tritium production. Visibility - it's for the three-eyed children.

Fixed that for you.

[HUGH]

I was wondering how many glow-worms it took to illuminate all these road markings.

Then there's these, the standard British "cats eye" invented decades ago and quite adept at unseating cyclists never mind the poor cat involved:

Well, if it glows in the dark, would it not be revealing itself? :p

I knew that looked familiar. They used to have those embedded in the roadway of the Macombs Dam Bridge that I used to bike on the way to college. I did my best to stay away from them.

:shock:

They did the same here, and yes, they went invisible in the rain. Also, in the city (NYC) they had reflectors embedded in the double yellow line and lane markers. But they were only visible if you used your low-beams and the rednecks here have no idea what low-beams are.

I like the idea of photo-luminescent paint on roads. Beats what's there now. Now, will it work after a cloudy day?

Yeah, if they use radium. Or maybe tritium.
