That's all right. They can remove the signs when we have all had our flu jabs.

Seriously, I have only just read this thread and I am horrified by the number of signs the driver is supposed to keep tabs of. As another poster said, the aim should be to make the driver's job as easy as possible - and therefore as safe as possible.

It reminds me of being with a German colleague driving back from Hanover Fair many years ago. Her comment was that there were so many road signs on German roads that it was almost impossible to notice and read them all, let along digest their meanings. Perhaps we have imported the person who specifies those signs.

Worse things happen at Hannover Fair. My advertising manager was driving, gave me a map and told me to navigate. I had to admit we were completely lost: I couldn't find a place called Ausfahrt anywhere on the map! (Admittedly it was 2 in the morning and drink may have been taken - by me, not the driver)
