Human creativity seems to know no bounds. Today’s video is a road in Hungary that plays music as you drive over the grooves in the asphalt.
- You have to go the speed limit

Hah! Watch the video and then imagine a Ferrari zipping over the pavement at 120 mph.
Little bit of trivia? The same thing was attempted in Lancaster, California, and it did not go well. Here is a link to watch after the one below, if you are interested.
Can you make your words “sing?” If your car can do it, so can you.

Steve, I don’t think that song will make the Top Ten, but it’s not bad, for a road! What a fun sense of humor the Powers That Be had! (And a good way to control speed…..)

How do you find these things? haha! Love it!

Interesting! I wonder if the road sounds different if your vehicle has knobby off-road tires as opposed to highway tread? And if the asphalt pavement gets too hot, does the tune sound “flat?” Ha, Ha!

I did a little searching to see if there were any other “musical” roads and found there was a strip of Route 66 in New Mexico that plays “American the Beautiful.” (Unlike the California road, this one actually works.)

Thank you for sharing! I was planning to research it myself. Happy to discover there’s a working one a little closer than Hungary, lol.

The best part of the host’s dialogue was his comment about “quantum field fairies.”
A “fun” post!

What a novelty! I’ve not heard of this before, got quite a chuckle. The musician in me thanks you for sharing. 😀

Here is New Mexico’s musical highway near Albuquerque. Playing “America the Beautiful.”
