This is a cool idea...

I'm just not sure how feasible it is.

Seen that before. Really interesting idea. The problem would be the initial cost to start converting roads over though, that is something no one can seem to answer.

Cool, but would take forever to implement. I guess it would shut down lots of jobs and open up a line of work though.

Interesting....but there are a lot of tests that will need to be done.  Various 1-5 mile test strips would have to be constructed. Setup and longevity testing, load testing ie. commercial trucking, vehicle stopping of panels vs asphalt wet, dry & icy conditions, maintenance and replacement; all will have to take place. Until they can prove that the long term costs will be cheaper or equal to current technology I don't see it replacing current technology. I think it will stay around more for private use as driveway, vehicle parking, outdoor sports courts, sidewalks, etc. Will be years if ever before you would see it used as a replacement for major roads and highways.

  very cool     but

 how can glass have the same traction surface( non-slip coefficient)  as tar  especially wet    

would like to see a skateboard on them
