The way the scenery and backscene blend into one another is very good,

Those road markings are curious; I don't think I've ever seen any like that before.

 

Old style painted kerbs at junctions were very common prior to 1963 and the Worboys Committee report. That's the report that gave us a uniform standard of signs, fit for higher speed traffic and bigger roads.
