With 3D Zebra Crosswalk, This Town In Iceland Found The Perfect Way To Slow Down Speeding Cars

In the tiny fishing town of Ísafjörður, Iceland, an excellent development in road safety has just popped up – almost literally. A new pedestrian crossing has been painted which appears to be 3D by way of a cleverly-detailed optical illusion.

Scroll down to see fascinating photos of the installment taken by Ágúst G. Atlason of Gústi Productions.
