Don't know if this is the right category, but I was coming home from Los Angeles, on the freeway tonight, and I was thinking: "Why can't someone install a bunch of hardly noticeable rollers, spaced maybe a half-mile apart, in the pavement, hooked up to harness electricity from the heavy traffic. It seems expensive to install, but then it would be free energy! The cars are going to travel on the freeways anyway, so why not use the energy and motion they provide. So.........tell me how stupid this is. I'm totally ignorant of engineering, so it could be impossible and I wouldn't know!
