What are “SNAP” Rumble Strips?

Sonic Nap Alert Pattern (SNAP), also simply known as rumble strips, are an innovative road safety feature designed to prevent accidents caused by driver inattention or fatigue. These strips are patterns on the road surface that produce distinct auditory and tactile feedback when a vehicle drives over them. Typically made from grooves or raised bars on the asphalt, they create a rumbling sound and vibration that immediately alerts drivers, effectively snapping them back to attention. This sensory feedback is crucial for alerting drivers who might be drifting off the road or unintentionally changing lanes, often due to drowsiness or distraction.

SNAP rumble strips are strategically installed in high-risk areas such as highway edges, centerlines, and near intersections. Their implementation has been shown to significantly reduce the number of accidents, especially those involving vehicles veering off the road. These features are a cost-effective and simple yet highly effective way to enhance road safety. They are now widely used in many countries, forming a critical part of road safety and traffic management strategies.
