What a waste of money, they should build the solar panels above the road to actually generate electricity and block the sun from the drivers(which if you're driving in the shade, it will be cooler in your car, meaning you won't need to run your air conditioning or run it as hard, saving you fuel or extending your battery life. Also it will help keep the road from getting wet/frozen, making it safer.).
Solar freaking roadways, what a horrible idea...
