The police of the Romanian city of Timisoara are investigating a difficult matter: whether the markings at the repaired city intersection are made according to traffic regulations. The investigation had to be started after the drivers, seeing such a maze of lanes, wondered: who did it at all and how to go here?
Responsible for a kind of road street art is a private contractor who was hired by the city authorities to work on expanding the avenue to five lanes.
Drivers are rightly afraid that if you follow all the lines, you can get into an accident with another equally neat driver.

Marking leading to hell: Romanian drivers don't know where to go at the new intersection In fact, traffic at the intersection follows the same rules as at most four-line interchanges in Europe. But the drivers were puzzled by the abundance of dotted lines guiding them.
Apparently, the contractor thought that he would make it easier for drivers by drawing a dotted line in which lane motorists need to change lanes. And thus confused everyone completely.
Marking leading to hell: Romanian drivers don't know where to go at the new intersection Residents of the city, not without humor, share their guesses on social networks about what it is. Someone suggested that "local legends say that in the next book by Dan Brown, Robert Langdon will find the Grail using this marking," while others compared the intersection with a map of pirate treasures and with signs made specifically for aliens.
Marking leading to hell: Romanian drivers don't know where to go at the new intersection A representative of the road construction company responsible for this art said that, in his opinion, everything is logical: "There will be no problems as soon as you find yourself at an intersection in the flow of traffic. Basically, such comments come because the intersection is really marked up a little more than usual."
