Are you sitting comfortably ?
This is a 20 mph sign at the end of Edward Street as it enters Church Road, Redfield, next to the Chinese takeaway, indicating that this stretch of Church Road is 20 mph. Right ?
Wrong. This sign, 50 metres away, at the end of Verrier Road, by The Old Bank, shows the end of a 20 mph Zone as you enter Church Road. Or does it ? Surely, that's what a crossed out 20 means, with the words 'Zone Ends'. So what's with the other 20 in the red circle ? Perhaps the speed limit's still 20, but the 20 mph zone has ended. Uh ?
I knew I should have taken a Ph.D. in street furniture.
No matter, this lunchtime, a police car sped up Church Road on the wrong side at 80 mph, without siren or lights, which at least gives the impression that everyone else is doing under 20.
