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 new study carried out by the UK’s Transport Research Laboratory (TRL) highlights the increased risks resulting from drivers using smartphones while at the wheel. Previous research shows that using a mobile phone while driving impairs driving performance. But with smartphones now becoming more common, an increasing number of drivers are able to engage in a broad range of activities using their phone while at the wheel. The TRL’s study investigated whether there was an effect of social networking using a sm
