    Nominations now open.

    Mine goes to one on a dual-carriageway between Galway and Ennis. You're pootling along happily at under 80kp/h when a sign appears changing the limit to 100kp/h. So you obediently speed up, moving your eyes back from the sign to the road...

    ...just in time to realise that you're heading straight into a roundabout at increasing speed.

    Why they placed the sign *before* the roundabout, not *after* it is a mystery.

    Mods, I've moved my comment to the correct thread already; no need to merge the threads - only my original post and the comment on yellow lights by magick are apposite. Please delete the thread.

    You can't trust roadsigns in his country. I pay no attention to them.
