0:24Now PlayingNo radio? No problem. The emirate of Fujairah has installed rumble strips along a half-mile stretch of highway that play the Ode to Joy melody from Ludwig van Beethoven's Ninth Symphony as cars roll over. It's part of a project aimed at integrating music into daily life.
The technology works by carving strategically spaced grooves into the asphalt on Fujairah's Sheikh Khalifa Street. Then, as tires hit the ridges at roughly 62 mph, the resulting vibrations produce a melody audible inside the vehicle.
