Ok, it looks stupid, i agree, but I honestly believe this will make the road safer.
I doubt it. Some jackass is going to be swerving & following all those lines around, maybe even someone who's not a skilled or adept driver, like a grandma with bad eyesight. And they're going to meet some guy driving straight on his side, possibly riding a little too close to the middle. Boom, accident.
Who's at fault in such a situation? The grandma trying to follow the wacky lines? The man on his side of the road, in his lane? Or the city for painting these scary, erratic lines & making the roads more hazardous?
It would be a lot more straightforward, responsible, and frankly defensible if they put in some form of speed bumps.
Yeah they don't care about the law but hooo they would never break line.
