Reply to comment by kirijo in Utah Highway LiDAR Scans - Utah's Department of Transportation uses state-of-the-art 3-D laser scanners to capture the surfaces and area surrounding 15,000 miles of its roads. Here's a video of "driving" driving through 20 minutes of point cloud data on Route 95 S in Utah. [OC] Source: Utah DOT. by jonkeegan

No idea either. Some artifact of it being the far side (or the close side) to the scanner as the truck went down the road?

It seems like that might be "the far side" from the scanner. At least when I see the "snake" appear on the opposite side from the diagonal pattern, I'm thinking the snake is a vehicle which was traveling in the same direction and speed as the scanning truck for a bit.
