1. The problem:
I am a grade 10 student and I have a physics project. I want to try to stop most road accidents because many lives are lost on the roads daily. Then I got a idea, I heard that rollercoasters stop with magnets and I thought that we could stop crashes the same way with minimum damage to the car.
3. The Attempt at a Solution :
By putting magnetic material in all four wheels, on the outside, and at every crossing put strong elektro magnets in the road that are timed with the robots to magnetize as the light goes red. Then all cars that didn't stop by themselves will be forced to a halt by the magnets just like a rollercoaster. This will not only minimize car to car crashes at crossing but pedestrians will be saver and people who drive over the red light wouldn't be able to anymore.
Do you think this could work? :)
