Musical Road - Hungary

A musical road is a road, or section of a road, which when driven over causes a tactile vibration and audible rumbling that can be felt through the wheels and body of the vehicle. This rumbling is heard within the car as well as the surrounding area, in the form of a musical tune. Musical roads are known to currently exist in Denmark, Hungary, Japan, South Korea, the United States, China, Iran, Taiwan, and Indonesia. In the past, they could be found in France and the Netherlands as well.
Each note is produced by varying the spacing of strips in, or on, the road. For example, an E note requires a frequency of around 330 vibrations a second. Therefore strips 2.4 in (61 mm) apart will produce an E note in a vehicle travelling at 45 mph (72 km/h).
Hungary
In 2019, Hungary installed a musical road in memoriam of László Bódi (better known by his stage name Cipő), lead singer from the band Republic. When going on the side of the road, one can hear an approximately 30-second snippet of their song 67-es út (Road 67). It is located at 46.530547°N 17.817368°E on Road 67 between Mernyeszentmiklós and Mernye, in the southbound direction.

@@tomchillen3039 oh, I didn't realise I don't exist. Nor my parents, or my family, since the 1100s (that's how far my family traced itself back in the late 1800s to settle a land dispute). If you're talking about Huns vs. Magyars, sorry, we can't help the stupid name, not our fault. You should talk to those ignorant medieval monks.

Missed opportunity to use the left wheels to play a bass part. :) But I can see potential safety issues with varying vehicle track sizes...

damn I wanna DIY that to our neighborhood.
Any guesses about its material?

[@Shackleford8]

It looks like highway paint. They used to test highway paint around my area by painting a bunch of lines across one lane of highway to see what line lasted the longest and it made a noise like this when you'd drive over them because it was a set of lines then a gap and another set of lines. Surprisingly it doesn't take much to make noise. Also highway paint is pretty thick.

[@hey_how_are_ya]

And take in account for speed limit so that when the cars go slower put the tiles closer together

It's called "67-es út" (lit. Road 67) by the Hungarian band Republic. They made this in memoriam of the singer who passed away early. And this is on the actual Road 67.
