Mobility Matters Daily Special - Dangerous and Stupid

Today’s video is from a channel that I have only recently got into - Bryn Buck’s Show Me A Sign. Its is spectacularly geeky about roads and traffic signs and I love it. And this video is a perfect rant about digital roadside advertising.

In order to grab attention, roadside advertising is becoming more grotesque and in your face. This catches the attention of drivers, and so it distracts them, and collisions occur. And there is not a damn thing that highways and traffic engineers can do about it. Listen to this, absorb it, and get angry with your local planning department.
