Wind-drive ROTAFLECTOR

ROTAFLECTOR fits securely on the top of traffic cones and can replace up to 50% of road danger lamps (every other lamp) in straight line delineation, claims its manufacturer. The wind-driven rotating reflective device has been fully tested at TRL [UK's Transport Research Laboratory] and approved for use on the network by the UK Highways Agency and the Department for Transport. Requiring no batteries, the ROTAFLECTOR is made from recycled materials and is totally recyclable itself.

    A sophisticated system to evaluate in-vehicle safety has been developed by the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL) in the UK. The protocol is based around four key categories of assessment: Relevance, Deployment, Usability and Resilience. A product is scored in each category with an overall score determined to allow a TRL recommendation status to be given to the product. The evaluation protocol can be used to provide independent support for the claimed benefits of the evaluated product and/or to provide exp
