An improved road marker of the type usually fastened into apertures defined in road pavement surfaces where the improvement comprises: a base, adapted to fit within said aperture in said road pavement having defined therein an open-topped spherical aperture; and a deformable resilient sphere conincidentally retained in said open topped spherical aperture, having a portion thereof protruding above said base and said road pavement surface; and wherein said resilient sphere is free and able to universally rotate in said open-topped spherical aperture; and wherein said sphere is hollow and includes independent means for reflecting light wherein said means used for the purpose of reflecting light entering said sphere, back outside said sphere, is positioned within said sphere and said sphere is light transmittable thereby allowing light to freely enter said sphere through the wall of said sphere and said means for reflecting light has the capacity to be independently displaced when said sphere is deformed and therefore said means for reflecting light is protected from damage.
