The argument is that by gigving more attention to signs you are actualy driving without due care and attention as half your time is taken reading signs tat are placed high up enogh that you cannot even fous on the road with your peripheral vision.

And how can it be right that i shoukd give more attention to that then the kids kicking a ball abut on the pavement????

Exactly. Try reading those signs while doing 50 the wrong way down the road in the gutter amongst the scattering pedestrians and mopeds.

Yeah, no, you are completely correct. I am really suprised to here this. I hope Dublin doesnt start getting any bright ideas about this.

In the US you are not even allowed filter apparantly . So... I am permenantly obsessively scanning for cop cars, to the point that it affects my driving.

I got reefed for this a couple of times... but thankfully have an Irish accent, a good line in talking bollix, and a special police corruption card So, never actually got in real bother for it.
