Doctor Cheng most cell phones have a “do not disturb while driving” feature. Unfortunately most people don’t turn on that feature. Too bad cell phone companies couldn’t come up with a feature that basically locked the phone from being used while driving. The hardest part I see about that would be the phone being able to tell if you were actually driving or just a passenger in a moving vehicle.

[@amzarnacht6710]

Un-monitored nets are a *HORRIBLE* idea on thru-water flow ways that are shown. In areas that only see water during storms it's quite useful. In either instance they will just trap wildlife and stray pets which then die and create a rather noisome situation. Better to have an oscillating screen that continually clears itself (a net on a drum that dumps it's accumulated litter out of the way. This does not impede water flow as it remains clear and dumps trapped wildlife aside. Hard on fish, though).

nope at effective, not all garbage make it out on the open. Imagine an arteries when it gets a build up inside. The water way would eventually constrict and the canal would eventually block without proper maintenance and this could be a huge difference in densely populated cities. Imagine people throwing cans each seconds and millions of people share the same space, its like you would need to clear the canal every half a day or so depending on the weather condition and that's labor intensive. Here in the Philippines the trash here can even make flood canals walkable because poor urban design, slums clumping up together near flood drains, and poor public discipline.

It describes someone of exceptional mental capacity, or perhaps baffling dexterity in one thing or the other (musical genius, mathematical genius, etc).

@@travisrolison9646 Presumably just the pole-wrap portion would be LED supplemental to the main lights and cost virtually noting *extra* to power. We didn't NOT USE rubber tires because they get a bit slipperier in the wet and snowy/icy places. We just made prudent adjustments to rubber compound technology and carried on. Admittedly it was decades ago now but I did see an up-close display of "traffic lights over the ages" and they featured some serious built-in metal visors to counteract glare and some weather issues. Point being - traffic lights can be specialized to suit different climates per installation. Intersections where lots of distracted collisions happen might be perfect for something like that pole lighting.

@Lana Joy i know, i live in the Netherlands and it can be just as wet, but what i am trying to say is that you are more likely to slip on a wet surface than on a dry surface, and if the sun is shining it can glare back into your eyes, thus reducing visibility and that isnt a problem when it rains.

[@AmandaM1565]

@@calebmatthews2026 😂 wow. Calm down. A proper raincoat isn't generally warm enough for you to wear just the one coat. So you'd have to wear one underneath. I'm basing my experience off a few trips overseas to places like the UK, Canada and some parts of Europe. You can get coats with waterproof exteriors but most people would just use an umbrella. For a country like the UK for example, when rain can be unexpected, an umbrella is much more appropriate. It means your coat won't be wet when entering onto public transportation like trains as well when you're all tightly packed in like sardines during peak time which would also get others wet. An umbrella can be shaken of to remove the water, as can your coat but if it's got some kind of lining to make it warmer, if the water does get in it would take alot longer to dry out than an umbrella would. Imagine rain when the temperature is -7°C basically. A proper raincoat wouldn't do you much good, you'd need a coat underneath and have to take it off your raincoat when entering the train to avoid water dripping everywhere and on everyone else.
