Sign language

The short letter by John Attard, accompanied by a photo of a 180-degrees traffic sign taken abroad, made interesting reading.

However, we too have traffic signs that are very original. One of them is in Attard (see photo). Unfortunately, in this case the Attard local council seems to have been over enthusiastic while doing the bending and twisting.

Incidentally, just a few weeks ago, I got booked by a traffic warden for parking too near to the zebra crossing just beyond this particular sign. The time was 10.30 p.m. and the zebra crossing markings on the road were, and still are, hardly visible in the daytime, let alone at night.
