Product Description:

The Rubberneck-less is a mobile screen, comprised of eight to twelve sections, which are assembled in a telescoping type manner. The Rubberneck-less would be compacted for transport and extended to the required length upon reaching the destination. The design intent is to provide a practical method to screen off a movie shoot, work project or accident on a highway to prevent rubbernecking by tourist or motorists, thus promoting traffic flow and increased highway safety.

Design Features:

• The Rubberneck-less would be a mobile, multi-sectioned screen that would be comprised of 12 panels or less, assembled in an telescoping type manner. The 12 panels are mechanically connected together and mounted on a base plate which is assembled in a telescoping manner with one end attached to a retracting motor. The entire assembly could be transported by trailer or truck to the site the Rubberneck-less is to be used.

• A handle is attached to the outermost panel frame which would be used to facilitate expanding the panels to the desired length. The dimensions of each panel is 9 feet in height, 8 feet in width, and 4 inches in depth with a 2-foot wheelbase. Each panel is comprised of plastic louvers enclosed with aluminum frame on the top, bottom and both sides.

• The louvers allow the wind from a truck to pass through it without blowing the Rubberneck-less over, yet at the same time screen the site not causing the driver to slow down and stare at the accident.

• Most importantly, when the Rubberneck-less is positioned in front of an accident, the view of motorists would be blocked and effectively prevent rubbernecking and prevent traffic tie-ups and additional accidents. The Rubberneck-less also privatizes a fatal accident so fire personnel do not need to screen the site with a tarp.



Advantages & Benefits

• The Rubberneck-less is an innovative and practical product/invention which would provide a fast effective way to screen off accidents and eliminate the problem of rubbernecking which causes more distraction related accidents.

• The biggest ADVANTAGE is the fast deployment with stability in under 10-15 minutes in most circumstances.
