Malaysia's Glow-in-the-Dark Road Experiment: A Costly Failure • Malaysia piloted glow-in-the-dark photoluminescent paint on a 245-meter rural road to improve nighttime driving visibility and reduce accidents. • The initiative aimed to be a cost-effective alternative to streetlights, with the paint absorbing sunlight during the day and glowing at night. • Despite initial positive public reception, the project was shut down within a year due to significant economic and technical challenges. • The specialized paint was nearly 20 times more expensive than standard road markings, and its durability was questioned under Malaysia's tropical climate. • The government decided against a wider rollout, prioritizing basic infrastructure repairs over expensive, novel technologies.
