The white stipe rumble notches on Route 28 from the Alton Circle north were right on the white line. Usually they are about two to three feet to the outside of the line and they were very deep. At night in rainy conditions trying to remain inside the yellow rumble strips and the white line rumble strips was like trying to walk a tight rope. Also being so deep they were dangerous when wet and for motorcycles under any conditions. And they made so much noise that people a half mile away from the road complained.
Another example of what looks good on paper is not always good when put into action. Typical engineer mistake. All design engineers should be made to use their products for a year before putting them onto the market. Would result in a lot less bitching.
