Speed breakers are one of the most irking things while driving; particularly in the nights. But not anymore! See this speed bump in the image above. This is no ordinary bump. It’s the system that changes the mechanical energy of the cars moving over it to electric energy and uses it to power its LEDs. Safe bump not only makes night driving easy on one hand for it can be seen from far off but its design also allows cars to move over it smoothly, reducing the car damaging and prolonging hump life on the other. More images after the jump.
