CRAP !!
They play "America the Beautiful" !
New Mexico's Department of Transportation decided to spice up a desolate
quarter-mile stretch of Route 66 between Albuquerque and Tijeras. Grooves
were added in the road that play music when you drive over them going the
speed limit of 45 mph. The grooves work just like the rumble strips, which
vibrate your car if you drift out of your lane. These particular strips are
positioned to create different pitches when you drive over them, and if you
do, you can clearly hear "America the Beautiful" play through the vibrations
in your car's wheels.
