Don’t get me wrong, but don’t nice tunes make it actually easier to fall asleep?

If you read Jasper Fford’s “the big over easy” there is a character whose drive way plays a song in the same way… weird.

True enough, Aeris; but the one they picked — Mary Had A Little Lamb — is annoying enough that it’d keep me awake. Dang; now it’s stuck in my head. Time to crank up iTunes.

Walt Disney World experimented with this back in the early nineties. Different roads around the property played bits of different Disney tunes as you drove over.
Does this mean we have to think it’s evil now?

Maybe we can get musicians/advertisers to pay for road jingles.

That’s asinine - it increases wear on tires.

pretty clever idea with the whole tune thing, but does it increase the stopping distance if a driver has to make an emergency stop? since the road isn’t continuous it’s got grooves in, wont that mean there is less resistance if the car brakes suddenly?

Neat. I’ve hit patches of road that play a single note. Cool that someone got the idea to do it on purpose and make a song!
