That’s not a British all Irish sign, and they are the only places in Europe that speak English. So I think that’s an American sign it certainly looks like an American sign.

They should just put these signs in time. Just put “5 seconds ahead” if you’re doing 35mph. I feel like I can rationalize 5 seconds better than I can rationalize 300 feet.

Isn’t it more like 6 seconds? And what if you aren’t going 35 miles per hour?

I always felt this should be the rubric for how long to have your turn signal on, too. Then it scales with speed!
