अब गाडी होइन सडकले हर्न बजाउँछ ! २१औ शताब्दीको स्मार्ट युगमा अब गाडीले होइन सडकले नै हर्न बजाउने (भिडियोसहित)

While Indian truck drivers urge others to honk, with their ‘Horn OK Please’ message at the back of their trucks, honking is usually considered ill mannered, although most Indians choose not to consider that. However, not all kinds of honking is bad, especially on a blind turn. In a quest to improve safety on highways, HP Lubricants and Leo Burnett India have come together to develop a system that involves roads that would honk. The first prototype of the system is currently being tested on NH1, the highway connecting Jammu and Srinagar, which is known for being one of the most dangerous roads in the world. The system uses SmartLife poles just before sharp turns and hairpin bends. These poles wirelessly communicate with each other, and exchange data on incoming traffic. They gauge the speed of the vehicles and alert the drivers of approaching traffic by sounding a horn.
