Another announced that the speed limit on a dual carriage is 60MPH!

It usually is.

You really love making sweeping, WRONG statements, don't you?

Jesus Christ. Let me draw you a picture.

And that picture proves that you made a WRONG statement. Again.

The website clearly states a single carriageway is 60mph.

Ok, so I misread dual in the post above.

I hate to think how many mistakes you make on the road.

On a road you see the road, not a label telling you what it is. You
can't misread it.

Sometimes you have to read the label, too. there's a mile stretch of dual
carriageway near here which has 50mph signs posted.

That's a number, and less likely to be misread.

And you don't have to read the label, unless the satnav makes a noise to warn you it's got a camera.
