When travelling around Brisbane, especially on the highway, you may notice the presence of audible driving lines for the outer borders of the road lanes. While these are not implemented on all roads, you may find them on stretches of the Bruce Highway, Pacific Motorway, and other roads with high speed limits.
When you drive on the audible lines, you will hear a rumbling noise and also feel a shaking sensation - this is simply an effective road safety mechanism that will aid in alerting you that you are navigating outside of your lane. Whether it is that you are distracted or simply have lost concentration due to tiredness, audible lines can help in avoiding unnecessary accidents.
