Significant study on Interstates using my senses, critical thinking.
Driving from PA to FL on I95
Instantly noticed the incredible force of the winds on the interstate.
200 miles later, my arms begin hurting from constantly having to counter steer against the strong winds..
I take notice the line of trees on each side of the interstate stretch the entire highway. 700 miles.
"Man why are the bill boards pushed off back into the trees" . putting them there knowing the force of the wind could push any driver off the road who eases up to take a look? I'm probably over thinking it.
We arrive in Georgia, my arms burning from counter steering. My Significant other asks if I would like to take over, because I'm swerving and seemed tired, I told her its the road and winds, I'm not tired, I enjoy driving . I told her maybe it was me and pulled off to let her take over.
Now I'm able to use my senses to there full capabilities, and observe her driving as well as everyone driving around us, noticing every car was swerving like they were drunkards. I sat up straight off of my seat and instantly feel the swaying as if we were sailing. I examine the road , I see slight indentation in each lane where cars drive . the curvature of the indents as well as the wind are clearly causing the swaying of all cars.. Finally she says it feels like the car is pulling, I point out that everyone is swerving and ask if she can see the indents where the vehicles move along. She notices and starts to feel that's the cause .
I start feeling the road as I watch it, these cuts in the lanes, why are they there, they should be fixed. Every once in awhile one of these cuts make a slight curbed turn to the side of the road, each time we pass a curved cut, a stronger then normal gust of wind pushes the car in the direction of the cut.
Approaching a sign that says 207 people killed in crashes on I95 already in 2017.
I get flooded with information that I just felt was right, regardless of the science, my body told me I was right.
- common sense tells me that cars moving at 70mph down the interstates creates a force, wind. Constant motion over a period if time creates a current, similar to a wirl pool created in a swimming pool.
It also tells me wind will follow a set path, exactly like a central air system flowing through ducts. Quick recap so I'm not losing you.

-we have the flow of a constant force,Being the cars driving one direction over an extended time, the flow has been constant since the interstate has been complete.
- the trees on the sides of the Interstate act as walls, guiding the moving force in a set path. Wind in an aqueduct . one other note, the trees closest to the road are slightly curved , bent in the direction that the ensuing force of wind and traffic is heading.

OK , hopefully I still got you, because there's 2 places I'm going with this.

1. The road is the cause of most accidents on I95.
- the force of the wind being generated from the constant movement of vehicles, driving fast, some pulling a lot of weight.
- a sort of wind tunnel is firmed over time, being guided down a path.
- Curved cuts In the road , acting almost as a wing on a bird, flying , or a fin on a dolphin . acting as a sort of guide rail for the winds. Like water flow in a stream, the slightest groove can change its direction.
- so we got a giant 7-800 mile long wind tunnel, constantly sustaining moving force. The indents from cars weighing down over the years in each lane already cause cars to sway. Add in the wind force moving along the highway which makes it even more difficult to drive long distance. Add in the cuts in the road that help guide these winds, and the curved slices in the concrete that cause winds to change slightly towards the middle lane or off the road. Common sense tells me wind can be manipulated by energy.


2nd . this is already fact. The storms created on each side of the highway are almost always broken apart when crossing interstate 95. Which is leading me to believe these highways do create huge wind tunnels .

Re: Significant study on Interstates using my senses, critical thinking.
OP...

Right off the bat, I wanted to follow your story but fell off the wagon as I was looking for information regarding THE MAKE MODEL AND YEAR of your vehicle.

I will tell you this.

I drive a cargo-type van for work. No I do not deliver packages, I haul ass to the sites of large scale disasters and bring specialized equipment to help in the recovery process.

My "bat phone" rings and I could be going 200, 500, 1,500 miles to a disaster.

So you get the fact that I drive long stretches of road at very high speed in a vehicle as aerodynamic as a school bus.

(side note: research the price of lightly used school buses)

Back to the point. My most recent purchase is a Fiat built RAM Promaster. I researched my latest purchase in greater detail, because; I am tired of being blow all over the highway.

Being a FIAT body of European Design, this type cargo van, IS more Aerodynamic than anything made in America. But with my most recent trip I was STILL all over the road. So now I am looking into (I kid you not) winglets for the trailing edges and slip stream surfaces of the van's body.

They are small, almost tiny in fact and truckers who have been using them swear by them.

The science is pretty much exactly what you are stating...

Basically, the un-aerodynamic bodies of Large Trucks produce almost perfectly shaped... wind tunnels. The areas behind the cab and trailer have this tunnel collapse and literally pull backwards on the forward moving vehicle. This force kills MPG.

Also, this "wind tunnel" is fine to drive in as long as there is NO WIND or very little side wind. But once the winds get going this tunnel is pushed to one side or another causing a wall of air to place a torquing force on the entire length of the vehicle that must be fought by steering slightly opposite of the torque.

These winglets for lack of a better term, don't outright collapse the tunnel, but they do break it up enough to cause changes in it's structure to have much less effect.

I am seriously, thinking about adding these to my Promaster... [link to airtab.com]

2013 dodge avenger .
But from observations on the ride there and back, everyone had the same issue. I would watch the vehicles far ahead and took notice when someone swayed in or out , each driver in the same lane, no matter the distance swayed at the exact same spot. I was actually testing it at the time and each time I would spot the Hardest sways of other drivers and myself would happen where these surgical like cuts would begin to veer left or right, each time I could feel the wind at the moment of the cuts curve would push each driver in the direction of the cut...

If we take any car, and modify the body of this car, say we put a spoiler on the vehicle and a roofscoop. Those objects will change the aerodynamics of the car, affecting the way the car steers and the amount of down force caused by the cars movement.....
Now pretend for a moment, the road is the body of the car, if we cut lines into the road, we get the same affect, so any turbulence on the road will be affected depending on the speed of the wind and direction of the lines cut in the road...

Am I grttin there?

The problem is more than likely the road , as I described and not the car. If I'm driving up home on a small stretch of highway 209 , the traffic is less intense , because of the multiple towns , and the lack of some type of walls on each side, won't allow this force of wind to follow a set path , because there's open areas every mile or so that allow the force to disperse in many different directions.

Here in PA since my trip I've driven on 1 major interstate multiple times, I81. This road still isn't as busy as i95 but produces the same turbulence but weaker as it is designed almost identical to i95 . 2-4 lanes both ways, lined on each side of the interstate is heavy wooded areas that follow 81 for a good distance both ways , with a wooded area or a half pipe like hole separating the middle. Also has these surgical lines cut into the road every couple miles...
Anyways my point is that I'm confident that there is a huge mistake that was made when construction took place, and this flaw is the cause of more deaths and crashes then the actually drivers themselves..

Observe passing traffic next time you take a long trip down a long interstate, watch as they sway back and forth , some will cross lanes because of the wind change. Let your body and your senses observe the causes of the sway. Examin the road and let your senses , i guess kind of fuse with the car ,to the best of your abilities without crashing of course, And know its not the driver or the vehicle.. But in fact the busy interstates...

Re: Significant study on Interstates using my senses, critical thinking.
Let me attempt to justify my ability to gain knowledge by using prior knowledge and intense observation. A few hours of experimentation as well as The same observation and conclusion done by my SI and myself.


The nature of this distinction has been disputed by various philosophers; however, the terms may be roughly defined as follows:

A priori knowledge is knowledge that is known independently of experience (that is, it is non-empirical, or arrived at beforehand, usually by reason). It will henceforth be acquired through anything that is independent from experience.
A posteriori knowledge is knowledge that is known by experience (that is, it is empirical, or arrived at afterward).
A priori knowledge is a way of gaining knowledge without the need of experience. In Bruce Russell's article "A Priori Justification and Knowledge"[27] he says that it is "knowledge based on a priori justification," (1) which relies on intuition and the nature of these intuitions. A priori knowledge is often contrasted with posteriori knowledge, which is knowledge gained by experience. A way to look at the difference between the two is through an example. Bruce Russell gives two propositions in which the reader decides which one he believes more. Option A: All crows are birds. Option B: All crows are black. If you believe option A, then you are a priori justified in believing it because you don't have to see a crow to know it's a bird. If you believe in option B, then you are posteriori justified to believe it because you have seen many crows therefore knowing they are black. He goes on to say that it doesn't matter if the statement is true or not, only that if you believe in one or the other that matters.

The idea of a priori knowledge is that it is based on intuition or rational insights. Laurence BonJour says in his article "The Structure of Empirical Knowledge",[28] that a "rational insight is an immediate, non-inferential grasp, apprehension or 'seeing' that some proposition is necessarily true." (3) Going back to the crow example, by Laurence BonJour's definition the reason you would believe in option A is because you have an immediate knowledge that a crow is a bird, without ever experiencing one.

Where is the philosophy, at GLP? Is someone here that is fully capable of backing me up , correcting me, or using there prior knowledge to add on to this?

Driving Forces

To better understand wind we must recognize that it is the result of a limited number of accelerating and decelerating forces, and that the action of these forces is controlled by specific fundamental natural laws. Sir Isaac Newton formulated these laws as several laws of motion. The first law suggests that an object that is stationary will remain stationary, and an object in motion will stay in motion as long as no opposing force is put on the object. As a result of this law, a puck sent in flight from a blade of a hockey stick will remain in motion until friction slows it down or the goalie makes a save. This law also suggests that once in motion an object's path should be straight.

Newton's second law of motion suggests that the force put on an object equals its mass multiplied by the acceleration produced. The term force in this law refers to the total or net effect of all the forces acting on an object. Mathematically, this law is written as:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

or

Acceleration = Force/Mass

From this natural law of motion we can see that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force pushing or pulling that body and inversely proportional to the mass of the body. Thus, the greater the force created by the movement of a hockey player's stick the faster the puck will travel. This law also suggests that if the player used a larger (more massive) puck more force would have to be applied to it to get it to travel as fast as a puck with less mass.

In the previous lecture we briefly examined one of the forces, pressure gradient force, acting on wind. Let us return to this force and examine it in greater detail and in relation to Newton's laws of motion. We will also examine the effects of three other forces that act on air in motion.

Pressure gradient force is the primary force influencing the formation of wind from local to global scales. This force is determined by the spatial pattern of atmospheric pressure at any given moment in time.

.According to Newton's first law of motion, air will remain moving in a straight line unless it is influenced by an unbalancing force. The consequence of Coriolis force opposing pressure gradient acceleration is that the moving air changes direction. Instead of wind blowing directly from high to low pressure, the rotation of the Earth causes wind to be deflected off course. In the Northern Hemisphere, wind is deflected to the right of its path, while in the Southern Hemisphere it is deflected to the left.
