Default Unsigned Roads (30mph limit)

In this age of enforcing speed limits to several decimal places,
isn't it time all this "street lamps this" and "urban area that"
bollox was abolished and speed restrictions were, hey, just clearly
signed, with frequent repeaters?

You can drive around some areas passing speed camera signs on every
lamppost (so it can't be a cost problem), but no indication of what
the actual speed limit IS. Even if you know that you're on an urban
road, the street lamps are 8.7 furlongs apart and it's Tuesday so the
limit is 50, chances are the muppet in front thinks it's a 30 and
the one behind rummaging through the crap in your boot thinks it's
70.
