lacb, I must come across as a really negative person on here so I apologise.

In my experience signs and concave mirrors mean nothing to a section of society that really just do not care about you and I.

I cannot count the times that I have had to run out of the way of drivers driving the wrong way down Manor Mount and this despite the fact that I have my two young children with me. They would rather ignore the many no entry signs because they cannot be a***d to wait to get to the lights on Honor Oak Road.

That includes people travelling past the station in FH who turn right onto the London Road on the wrong side of the road because they get confused and those that run the red light when turning left into Waldram Crescent. They just don't care because there is no one to stop them.

We are over run with signs as it is.

I personally wouldn't put my and my kids safety in the hands of a sign and mirror.

Sorry.
