Surface traction question:

What are you going to do about traction? What's going to happen to the surface of the Solar Roadways when it rains>
We sent samples of textured glass to a university civil engineering lab for traction testing. We started off being able to stop a car going 40 mph on a wet surface in the required distance. We designed a more and more aggressive surface pattern until we got a call form the lab one day: we'd torn the boot off of the British Pendulum Testing apparatus! We backed off a little and ended up with a texture that can stop a vehicle going 80 mph in the required distance.

If this is true, the government should increase posted speed limits!

No! Better traction makes the roads even MORE dangerous! We should lower the speed limit to 5mph/8mph! The reason: because of the childrenz!!!!

No! because they teach you that if there is a moose on the road you must speed up to cause less damage. The same also applies with children. If you go to slow they get stuck under the vehicle, you go fast enough and there is potentially less pressure and they suffer less.
