Bruce is correct. That is Phoenix, AZ.

I think you don't pull it over for the same nonreason that you don't pull over a guy pulling a trailer with... A couple motorcycles on it, or a trailer full of yard waste. Because none of them is really an actual bomb the size of a truck. There's just no way. Why bother.

But if you're a cop you can pull him over just to ask WTF. I had a cop in NY State pull me over to ask if I built my truck myself.

When you're Ty Cobb you can slide any way you want. :eyebrow:

How do they do that? looks more like 1932 to me.

Cat's eyes removed? WTF?

Cat's eyes removed? WTF?
 

The reflective studs, commonly known as 'Cat's Eyes', in the centre line of the road have been removed to enable re-surfacing to take place.

Attachment 56685

These passive devices are being replaced by solar powered LED models.
The edges of some roads are marked by green (nearside) or red (offside) cat's eyes.

I've driven quite a bit in the US but mostly by day, so I don't recall seeing them there.
Are they part of the road fixtures and fittings?
In my defence, it's twelve years since I was there and the memory does tend to fade.

Link.

The inventor of Cats Eyes was from near where I live. The factory where they're made is still there.

It varies here, usually depending on how much fog the area gets. Originally some areas used Bott's Dots, I have one of the originals. Then the reflectors evolved and some even combine both but I've never seen them. Locally they've been cutting the pavement to create a narrow rumble strip along the centerline.

Very rarely do you see these on our roads (I should say, rarely do I see them) When I have they've been yellow reflectors.

Ahh, just read he wiki article. We get a lot of snow here, so the plows would tear them up.

Yeah, I've seen different ones in different places. I don't remember the details of what was where.

Around here they're set in shallow grooves so they're flush with the road surface

There is a road in western Virginia, I forget which now, that is very prone to blinding fog. I was caught on it one foggy evening, totally blind, no place to pull over and stop. I was afraid of going over the edge of the road and down the steep hill when suddenly, lights similar to runway marking lights came on alongside the road, enabling me to see where I was going enough to get out of the fog belt and back to safety.

Bless whomever put those there and whomever turned them on for me!

....I think I was on that road. It was basically a two lane twisty road through the mountains. It was just a fog wall, basically. Luckily, I was there during the day. I just followed a big rig. :)

Yeah, stick your hands in there, just don't make any sudden stops. :eek:

Can you even imagine the national alert if this happened today? :shock:
