"Botts' dots" are small, circular markers on roads that help guide drivers and alert them to changes in the road's direction. While some people refer to these markers simply as "dots," there are other synonyms that can be used. For example, some people may call them "tactile pavement markers" or "raised pavement markers." Others may use the term "rumble strips" to describe similar markers that are designed to produce a noise or vibration when crossed. In some cases, "Botts' dots" may also be referred to as "studs," "buttons," or "markers." Regardless of the term used, these markers play an important role in helping drivers navigate roads safely.
