This is ridiculous and I’ve seen this kind of Speed Limit Lottery in NSW and the ACT as well. How can you expect a driver to obey those posted limits within such short distances while keeping an eye on the traffic, school kids in this case, and their speedometer, all at the same time? These signage practices need to be stopped.

New 40km/h zones creating confusing speed limit clusters with massive fines for drivers

South Australia's rollout of 40km/h school zones has caused upwards of six speed limit changes in less than a kilometre in some areas, and prompted questions about revenue raising.

I just found out that hook turns exist in Tasmania! Although only for bicycles. To quote the Tasmanian Road Rules 2019:

**35.**   **Optional hook turn by a bicycle rider**
(1)  The rider of a bicycle turning right at an intersection without a *hook turn only sign*, or a *no hook turn by bicycles sign*, may turn right at the intersection by making … a hook turn under this rule.

(it goes on a bit after that)

Do American drivers know what a double yellow line means - in NZ it’s a driving offense to cross the double yellow line but in the USA drivers seem to think the double yellow line means they can cross it!

Yes, “Society is a shared fantasy that requires buy-in.” 🙂
That’s why it works. Anyone who drives on roads knows this. Many other examples. If risk was better understood, population level immunisation could be another good example. 😐

seems like as good a time as any to remember that America's current Secretary of Transportation started his professional career as a cast member of MTV's groundbreaking reality TV shows "The Real World" and "Road Rules" and has no relevant experience of any kind for the job (other than being a #MAGA congressman and a #FoxNews host).

Nearly everyday on my way to work, I cross a pedestrian crossing on green only to have a car driving through. This is the kind of behaviour which should easily be prosecuted. #society #roadrules #nz
Woman with low vision having to walk into traffic as cars illegally park over footpaths

People visiting a place of worship and local businesses are the culprits, Sally Britnell says, and it's forcing her onto roads to get around.
