Have thought of the pressure of cars on a road playing a role in generating electricity, had not thought of a road charging a car

Would rather see better cycling infrastructure tbh, but this is still pretty cool

What is the downside of having ubiquitous magnetic fields?

Ie. are there any impacts on human health from chronic exposure? And can this be solved with Faraday cages?
