ingenuous and inexpensive way to highlight Zebra crossings !👍
The best way is to install massive speed bump near zebra crossing
Well it kinda works
This might give heartattack for those who is enthusiasm with cars
Well that's it's purpose, since people care more their car, and fear scratching their expensive car, rather than life and safety of pedestrian or school children.
Actually this sort of thing is illegal as per traffic regulations in most places. Signs, signals, lights, markings, etc. should appear as minimalistic, clear and straightforward as possible, it's very much the international standards for traffic regulations as this is to cater to all sort of drivers.
"Optical illusion" such as this on a road crossing will affect drivers with certain depth perception not to mention those that are color blind as well, as they might have trouble perceiving the distance between them and the object causing even more room for errors for those behind the wheel.
better do a U turn before scratching the gtr
Do you know my Thailand has the highest per capita rate of accident fatalities in Asia? All because of poor enforcement of traffic rules and regulations. So sad
Russia has amazing bad drivers. They all have drive cams. Thailand needs the same. At least you'll have great TH-cam videos.
But aftwr some time the drivers will get used to it
Exactly
Yea. It would only work with people who aren't familiar with the road
To be honest not will probably take a lot longer to get used to it
Let’s hope that even when they get used to it that they’ll still marvel at it and PAY ATTENTION!
Nah as someone who encounters pedestrian lanes with illusions on it, yes, you do tell yourself that "oh the illusion is coming up, time to ignore it"
But honestly most of the time when driving, you're on semi-autopilot so if you see an obstruction, without realizing, you will still slow down
Thai people are some of the nicest people on the planet:-)
It's Thailand that never makes all citizens know that cars must stop when ppl are crossing a pedestrian.
I was 35 when I knew this rule during my overseas trip.
Thai Government never produces ad on TV nor teach this rule in school.
As a Thai i d say we know but most of Thais dont follow the rule
Thailand helps people cross the road, Hk damage traffic lights so people can't cross the road, man, I want to move to Thailand.
I fully understand you, I went to Hong Kong in mid of October for sight seeing with family and faced the same. I hope, situation will back to normal soon. Love Hong Kong from Thai friend.
@@thanaang1455 I really enjoyed visiting Thailand, friendly people and delicious food, it's been almost 5 years haven't been there, hope I can go and visit again soon.
Very creative! It looks so real👍
So pretty! Thanks for sharing.
Great idea 👍🏻😊
I love Thailand from a Colombian.
Hello everyone 👋 😊 and blessed be y'all honest and straight forward.
Direct and smart. 👍
A piece of art
This is what we call BRILLIANT!
The best way is to carry out a period of serious enforcement on the errant drivers
So which country is the first world traffic accident rate?
Great idea! Should be done in strategic places for safety and they should continue doing it.
We gotta get this in our country!
What a brilliant idea 😊
Great idea
The best solution is to carry out enforcements and fines. Then they will see better.
Creative 👍👍👍
I want to see one of those.
Well done. 👏👏👏
Very bright idea
We need this in the Philippines now!
oh wow... i thought my country is the only one where car/motorbike stop at zebra cross in traffic section.
Super cool
We have them in Malaysia for years now
Genie really where?
@@colinchow1618 terengganu i guess?
Never seen that
@@vietnamtoday9573 ok
@Din Joekhannaz i think i saw that in 2016?idk
Wah vry gud idea🤩
Awesome 🔥👌
3d art 👍🏻
nice Background music
name pls
Cool!
Rare edge case for autonomous driving system, like Tesla Autupilot - system must be able to handle it.
Sad to see they dont do the plain zebra crossing
What a great idea
Is it really painted on ? I didn't realise that because my eyes are painted on
Can we have this all over the world too? :)
Great idea. We can apply it in all SEA countries cuz most of their peoples dont have high awareness on these thing.
Meanwhile in Brunei speed bump for days
Only way to save your life from traffic in Thailand... Staying at Home. Hahaha 😥😂
That is awesome
No need for high tech. Just a simple way to raise awareness. Mad respect.
Where are they? Will be going to Bangkok in a couple of weeks wanna go see this
The only place I know is โรงเรียนบดินทรเดชา 1
@@boonraksashuntawiwat6548 thanks. I don't know how to read Thai, can you tell me how to get there ?
Colin Chow copy and paste the address to google map and you'll have the address to the location.
Big brain move
Just install a narrow speed bump
In America everybody crosses the cross line
It might have an adverse effect, rather.
What happen if the driver of the car suddenly jamb his brake!..on seeing the ‘raise plarform’. EEEeeee....#%^*+! Bang!
wow
Will this create more traffic due to confusion and paranoia?
I wonder what Gandalf will say.
I'd keep tripping over it 😄
That's cool idea
1:00 first is *INDIA*
I think it would be nice to just once in a while have a zebra crossing that CAN be raised. Just to mess up s pushy driver's car once in awhile .
Fantastic....😁
👍👍
Nice 👍👍👌
Clever kids
In Phil first ,we need to teach pedestrians to cross in PDx lanes,watch traffic light before crossing. Also Motorists should STOP when there is pedestrian lanes. Respect and Discipline for pedestrians and Drivers.
Love the design🙂🙂🙂
And what if causes an accident?
Superrrrart!!!!!!
What if the driver is too mesmerized by the zebra crossing that he doesn't notice people in front of his car and runs them over?
Riding a bicycle in Thailand is like a death wish . People drive like a maniac there without a regard to the rule of the road . Example: 2 lanes become 4 lanes for the vehicle and they tailgate you like no other
It's called vandalism in my country
Hmmm😑UR PERFECTLY RIGHT
Doesnt do much when u see it in person while driving, its not that 3d. The real problem is that the police do nothing. There are no real rules for driving here.
Thats super dangerous. Hope be removed, people cannot determine distance and someone gonna die.
Want to instantly halve road deaths is Thailand? Start using seat belts.
Start using driving licence which a lot of people don't have, use your police force to actually enforce the law, use helmets and seatbelts...
Why not educate people, I think that will be more effective
Well I would think that as a real object, so I'd try to avoid it and swerve my car to the pedestrian sidewalk.
I honestly thought it was real.

TThm chuu maang lil looppo poo chen chunng .❤
there must be many places where optical illusions could be exploited, as said, speed humps,you could make the road look narrower, I'm sure the psyche of human nature can be used to safetys advantage???? the skys the limit.
Not a new Ideas
😲😲😲😲👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏😊😊😊😊
Look at those pesky bikers touching the cars. All Bikes should be banned.
Haha cool
That's cool but utterly useless
ok boomer
It's poorly done
