Cambridge road traffic oddities
While poking through
Cambridge's traffic regulation orders, and
paying more attention than is probably healthy to traffic signs,
I've come across many strange things. Here, I try to record some of
them. These aren't all wrong; indeed some are both deliberate and
lawful, but they're all a bit strange.
Things I really should write up when I get a chance.

TRO)
