This is £4.16 for the kindle edition at Amazon or £4.99 at Waterstones for the paperback.

Traffic signs play a vital role in directing, informing and controlling road users' behaviour in an effort to make the roads as safe as possible for everyone. A knowledge of traffic signs is there essential, not just for new drivers or riders needing to pass their theory test, but for all road users, including experienced professional drivers. This fully updated edition of the publication supersedes the previous 4th edition (1995, ISBN 09780115516122) and contains information designed to illustrate and explain the vast majority of traffic signs the road user is likely to encounter.

    My dad was fired from his job in road work for theft...
    I didn't believe it at first. But when I got home, all the signs were there.

    You'd wonder why but it's known that the most stolen signs apart from funny place names are ones for Duck crossings....

    C'mon, little unfair.
    Blind are much better at following traffic signs than BMW drivers (edited)

    Bit unrelated but why does no one indicate when coming off a roundabout anymore? especially when going straight ahead (edited)

    Cars with big red "L" on them do, so not everyone

    I’d love to know how many people on the roads have actually passed their test in this country.

    Either they drive along at 20mph on a dual carriageway with their indicators constantly going or they don’t use them at all.

    Hottest deal of the day? Things aren't good
  20. deleted2881260's avatar
    I hope I don't beeped when cycling on my cycle lane after this deal being posted or encounter a close pass. (edited)

    Wouldn't it just be quicker and safer if people just got it as a facial tattoo, that way they can see it when they are doing their makeup or when they look at their phone... You know as they're driving.

    I mean road signs are just advisory aren’t they? Like the speed limit.
