The Harm of Unclear Road Markings

Road accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the world. According to statistics，25,047 people died on EU roads in 2018 alone.

It is estimated that about $2 billion is spent annually on road marking in the United States only. Road safety is improving in most European countries, but progress remains slow and far from the targets set. Progress is slow in part because of the dynamic and complex nature of road traffic, where safety depends on factors such as the road environment, traffic flow, and drivers.

For a long time, drivers have been considered the main cause of road accidents. But in fact, road signs, as well as the vehicle itself, can cause driver error, which leads to accidents.

Driving is a job that relies heavily on vision, while road markings exactly provide a simple, continuous, and clear reference to location.

Clear road markings for specific weather conditions will reduce the likelihood of accidents and thus improve road safety. From the perspective of drivers, the road markings should be able to be clearly visible under the retro-reflectivity of the headlights, and the information should be transmitted to the driver through clear markings and eye-catching colors.

With clear road markings and signs, not only will driving be easier, but there is no need for drivers to be overly strained, thus reducing the occurrence of accidents, and this is also beneficial in the case of long distance driving which is easy to fatigue.

It is obvious that high quality road markings and traffic materials make a great contribution to traffic management and driving safety.
