I don’t know if “reflector” is the technical name or not, I have always called them “city titties”. They are the raised, reflective markers used to separate city traffic lanes. Usually if you are going the correct way, white light is reflected. If you are going the opposite way red light is reflected.

I never knew how important reflectors were until I moved here. I have come to realize that you have to have them to see where you are going at night or while it is raining. It also helps people to stay in their lanes during the day. If they get sidetracked and start to swerve, they will start to hit the reflectors which would make them realize that they are too far over. You can only find reflectors on new roads if you are lucky.

The paint used to divide the lane is also very important. The paint on most roads looks like it wore of 10-20 years earlier. If there are no lanes at all, Puerto Rican will tend to make their own lane like Kramer did in Seinfeld.
