Repeater Signs Debate Hots Up

Why are the regulations so complex?!

Holy mother of god I though a sign was a sign but apparently not.

eeeehhhh?
How can we the ignorant public be expected to remember a sign that we passed a long time ago? They don't really trust us to drive, so we must be idiots, right?

Some stretches of 20/30 go on for ages, and you'd swear that they must have finished - so you definately need a "reminder".

*shakes head*

Why would they actively ban the one thing that would serve as a reminder to motorists what the speed limit is ???!

Some people will actively ignore limits - fact.

But the majority of "speeders" are probably people who didn't know what the limit was and were driving at the same speed as the traffic was flowing.

And they claim they want to cut speeding and reduce deaths and injuries on our roads.....
