Belly you amaze me sometimes.

Your idea appears to be leave the lousy road making mistakes in place, & drop the speed limit, or stick up a sign. Could this be the way to avoid admitting the job was lousy in the first place.

Perhaps our bureaucrats have shares in the Armco & road sign companies, it appears that is all the fools can think of when it comes to roads.

We have them spending a fortune on Armco around the outside of curves everywhere, but never fixing the lousy road construction causing the accidents.

Then their lousy Armco just bounces cars back into the path of other cars, instead of letting them harmlessly out into a paddock by themselves. They have spent millions on road furniture instead of roads around here in Beattie's day, & I hoped for better from the new government.

I guess this sort of stuff proves the fool bureaucrats rule, not the government.

I do have to wonder sometimes, if you actually read all the post before going off at some tangent. For a bloke who is so sure they know everything, you sure can talk rubbish sometimes.

That ain’t a Nanny State. A real Nanny State is like some UK Councils. They think everyone is having too much salt on their fish ‘n chips so they mandated the removal of the 17 X hole salt shaker lids and replacing them with 7 X hole lids.

The punters get peed off having had a few beers and remove the lids, now they are definitely getting too much salt.

The Devon Constabulary is required to carry a stock of thongs (flip-flops) in their patrol cars. The reason? Some young ladies having had a little too much at the Club on Saturday evening are inclined to fall off their high heels. So the local Bobbies have to supply thongs before arrest.

Now THAT is a Nanny State.

Nanny State is bad enough but in the cities we also have to contend with this,

Hasbeen Good on ya Bloke!
What a relief! to know my mind does not work like yours! Hip Hip haray!
Bloke you must consider your growing grumpiness.
Roads are not play grounds for elderly petrol heads.
I thought your diatribe a few years ago about that poor bloke who was not English and needed to read a meter or some such thing was you worst this one now is.
See you have company but why donnt you get together and pull the sign down, then think about any deaths after!

Locally we are being imposed upon by the installation of concrete
obstructions at the road side and at some inersections.
They stick out from the curb into the roadway.
That they are incorrectly positioned is proved by the tyre marks on them
within just a day or two of their installation.

I often wonder why a traffic engineers qualification does not include a drivers licence. It seems fundamental to me.
