In a small Pennsylvania town, an unusual solution to speeding has recently been implemented.
A seemingly problematic road in Montgomery Township doesnt have straight lines dividing its lanes anymoreit now has squiggly lines.
Perhaps thats why the post prompted so much confusion, disbelief, and amusement.
Was the road crew drunk while painting this?
one user commented, while another added, Did nobody suggest speed bumps?
Looks like you gave creative license to a class of kindergartners.
Hopefully they remove it before a cyclist is killed.
The day after the announcement, CBS News Philadelphiasurveyed several residentsabout the new traffic pattern.
I think its an eyesore.
I think its ridiculous, one local said.
Another called it weird and awkward.
In addition to the new traffic pattern, Montgomery Township plans to install additional chicanes to Grays Road.
Its not yet clear whether they will also readdress the squiggly lines.
