“The plan to put large distracting advertising signs on motorways beggars belief. We call upon the government to step in and ban these signs immediately.
This unfortunately typifies the problem of allowing local authorities to get involved in road safety decisions. Time and again we hear of them ignoring advice from traffic police on vital safety matters such as speed limit setting. Localism has been a disaster for road safety as it places safety decisions in unqualified hands, a dangerous game.”
