Thank you for the wins, your next challenge should you wish to accept, is your car and custard at a road sign with 3 or more of these diversion symbols on it

Eg 3 of these

I spotted one last night but my dedication to this game has limits and stopping on the A1 in the dark in an area without a layby or similar to get custard and a camera out is beyond them! Plus I would probably have had to do an emergency stop and reverse once I noticed the sign.

Just north of Newark on the northbound side if anyone is braver than me.

I can honestly say I don't think I have ever seen one of the above signs yet alone 3

I can get 2 easy, but can't see any 3's locally.

Think this is the one I saw:

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.113717,-0.8155,3...

Actually, it isn't the one as there wasn't the same sign on the exit at the next junction - wouldn't have been able to stop there anyway!! Might have been another one further north or maybe the signs have changed.

They are often included on other signs though.

I reckon it is time for the challenge setter to prove that this can be done wink

I agree, these are motorway diversion signs, so only seem to appear at busy junctions on major roads, as far as I can see - I have been keeping my eye out for them, and there are usually only 2 at a junction, for the two possible directions off the motorway,(eg. one for eastbound, one for west) the only place I have seen 3 or more was here, and impossible to stop - Could only be done with a camera in a chase car!

OP, prove it can be done or replace the challenge please?

I think the challenge meant 3 symbols on the same sign, might need clarification from the setter

I'll give that a win as it is going to be very difficult to park near any of these and there are three shown.

Yeah, three (on different signs) is a good effort. Win.

have a 3rd WIN - best I could find was 2, and as said before in a place that's impossible to stop at.

So there I am explaining to mrs easty what these diversion signs are and I said we've got them on our local bridges but only one or two.

Calls up street view and.......banghead


I work within half mile of that!
