minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoThe signs work because people are scared of speeding cameras. If you put up signs everywhere without backing them up with cameras people will obviously ignore them. The cameras are doing the real work, the signs are just for people new to the area.
