There are 12 stop signs near my house. I was once fined 6,000yen(£50) for not stopping(not here).

Although I can see the reasons for them all - it made me laugh to see you stop, start, travel a few yards, stop, start Laughing

"Give way" sign in U.K. doesn't force you to stop every time and it's much better than ours. Some of them are traps of police to earn money.

Me too, in that I remember on my bike training, I was always told you should stop at cross roads unmarked ones on back streets you should stop all the time as often people will fly through them.

Perhaps the solution here is to see which road is the busier one and give that one priority as for all we know looking at the stop signs the crossing roads are those which have priority.

How dare you! Calbee prawn sticks are perhaps the most addictive crisps type things on the planet! Maccoys are nothing compared to them!

Prawn sticks are made of wheatmeal not potato Tut Tut
McCoy's is the best crisp I've ever eaten Thumbs Up
US fake crisp like Pringle's are more famous here and it is wrong. So I made this video.

We do have stop signs here on some junctions with really bad visibility, and fast moving traffic on the main road - I can only think of one locally though.

McCoy's? No! Okay, so maybe they are okay sometimes but Kettle Chips are the best.
