Stupid signs in Britain

Confusing road signs could be forced to Give Way to common sense under new Government plans.Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin is calling for stupid signs to be removed under new guidance for local councils. Proposed plans will reduce the number of redundant road signs as well as revising traffic sign regulations.
The plans will be outlined in a speech to members of the Campaign to Protect Rural England, according to Sky News. Mr McLoughlin will say: "Too many country roads carry a reminder of how insensitive planners can be to the aesthetics of transport design with the ugly and unnecessary signage that clutters up the network. New signs are added without any apparent consideration of existing ones or what's needed.Often what we're left with is not just a blot on the landscape. It's also something that's confusing and dangerous."
New guidance and traffic sign regulation will be issued by autumn next year.
So before they’re forced to U-turn and disappear off the driving landscape forever, take a look at these meaningless messages from around the UK and some gems from around the world.
