My brief review of some road signs:
Lifesaving - ‘Think bike’
The majority of cyclists prefer to wear road colour Lycra, cycle, with head down and pedal as if they were in a race. Seemingly unaware they do not show up well to motorists.
Puzzling - ‘Share the road’
What are the other options?
No stopping -‘Lay-by closed’
What are people supposed to do in an emergency?
Irritating - ‘Road ahead closed’
Not another detour!
Amusing - ‘Slow Deer’
Often out of date - 'Flood’
Good for a chuckle? - ‘Credit Cards Taken’
Sign by a lay-by containing burger van near Alresford.
