Default Unsigned Roads (30mph limit)

I remember seeing the
3,2,1 countdown idea (either as signs or as white lines across the road)
proposed in the AA Magazine "Drive" many years ago. It's a shame no-one
picked the idea up and made it law.


There are countdown signs on the approaches to some villages near where
I live: the usual diagonal stripes with a speed limit sign above, except
that the red ring is grey (presumably to stop it being a speed limit
sign).

I don't think they're necessary in most places, but they should be
provided where there are sighting issues.
