William Tell Road

Honda put together a very cool gimmick for an upcoming commercial. It's the 3rd of its kind, right here in Socal in Lancaster (other two are in Asia I believe). Keep reading to find out what it is and how they did it.
Persons driving the posted 55 miles an hour west on Avenue K, in the high desert about five miles west of the Antelope Valley (14) Freeway, hear about 38 musical notes of the well-known theme, also known as the overture to "The Lone Ranger."
...
The road is tuned to a car just exactly the length, and equipped with tires the same size, as a Honda Civic, a spokesman for Honda said. But other vehicles are also successful in playing the notes, if a little off-key.
But unfortunately, the locals have been complaining. Apparently they didn't do this far enough away and residents in the surrounding area have been hearing the music at night time. They're planning on paving over the road this Tuesday.
