Sometimes one sees ideas when on holiday and it makes you wonder why

count-down displays on Traffic Lights (and/or the Pedestrian Light)

An idea I just saw in Italy was Pre-cast Curb Stones with a tongue
and groove a the end so they interlocked. Must make installation
easier.

In France they have stretches of motorway (10 to 20kms) where lorries
are not allowed to overtake each other. I think the police must take
offenders aside and shoot them because you don't get lorries passing
at the glacial pace the do here.

The 'glacial pace' is hardly the lorry drivers' fault, it's simply down
to the speed governor on the lorry.

So why overtake in the first place ?

A question I have asked myself over and over again :-)


Stop asking if you couldn't be bothered to reply then.

I did reply.

Well then, you couldn't have been satisfied with the answer.
