Strange Road Signs

[Dogtrousers]

And signs with a green circle are advisory only. They have no legal enforcement, and do not override the ones with the red circle (or the NSL) sign, which indicate the legal limit.

I never knew that signs with a green circle were a thing. That's not surprising because I, along with a significant proportion of the population, am unlikely to be able to distinguish them from those with a green circle.

So if they are a thing, it's a pretty stupid thing.

They aren't a thing on the roads generally.

A local authority that recognises the existence of cyclists!

Not local to me, then.

Reverse psychology because they know a lot of people are contrary.

This is pretty much standard practice on one route I use. There is a clear demarcation of which side is for cycles and which for walking, but people almost always walk in the cycle lane, meaning I have to take to the footway to avoid them. In fact the other day I was berated by a pedestrian, who was walking in the cycle way, who told me I should be riding on the road.

There are two combination pedestrian/cycle paths, here, and pedestrians are often in the cycle path. The arrows also point the direction you're supposed to go because it's one way on one of the tracks, but I've come face to face with cyclists. It's like they are totally stupid or just don't care.

When I'm walking I generally gravitate toward the left, and can't remember which side is which.

Oh, does it not indicate the height above which you mustn't?

If the cable was live and of sufficient voltage they wouldn't...

If the cable was live and of sufficient voltage they wouldn't...

At least, they wouldn't ignore it twice.

If they did they would be charged for watt is a revolting offence
