When approaching a town from a rural road in the UK, there is usually a speed limit, such as 30 mph. Before the speed limit sign, there are three bars, then two bars, and finally one bar, reminding you that you are approaching the speed limit sign. The last one is the speed limit sign with a red 30 on the ground, and the roadsides are like streetlights. I wonder if they are used for speed cameras in the UK? I saw that UK drivers seemed to exceed the speed limit when passing the speed limit sign. Do you know ? United Kingdom Q&A
Drive for 2 days in Spain. Total 4 days. My credit card has been charged by Avis car rental for several months after I returned the car. Each time it's basically more than 40 euros. Could I have broken the law so many times while driving for 2 days? I can't believe it. I have paid for 3 months in a row, each time more than 40 euros. I'm crying. I drove very steadily on the road, an old driver for many years, and it's impossible for me to break the law so many times. Moreover, I have not received any violation records through email or regular mail. What's going on? I need an explanation ? Spain Q&A
On the highway EP-2 from Barcelona to Zaragoza. Got punctured tyre at the rest stop and then continued on the highway. Someone in a yellow vest pretending to be a police officer helped us. Drove us to the side of the road and then robbed all our backpacks, big loss. Called the police, they said not to rest at that section's rest area, bad guys are watching. If you get a flat tyre, lock your car doors, call the police, wait for the rental car company to rescue you. This happened on January 29, 2020, hope more drivers see this and be careful to avoid it. If possible, don't drive. Flying is safer on that route ? Spain Q&A
For buses that don't stop or announce the stations, how do you ensure you don't get off at the wrong stop? It seems that in Italy, buses don't announce the stations and only stop when someone needs to get on or off, and you have to press a red button to signal that you want to get off... The method of counting the stations and listening for announcements doesn't work, so do you rely on the driver to call out the stops? But what if you don't speak Italian and the bus is crowded? Looking out for landmarks? You need to have landmarks to look at, and it's hard to see them when it's dark or when the bus is crowded... So the only thing I can think of is to look at the GPS location on the map... Do you have any clever tricks for this ? Italy Q&A
Currently the biggest problem I encountered and hope everyone knows, today from Jasper to play out 93 Glacier Avenue to reach near Lake Louise normally want to pass through the nearby highway exit through Field to reach Golden, but the highway has been closed causing to go from Lake Louise back to Banff. The middle of the highway goes to the hot springs of Radium, more than 100 kilometers, in the complete darkness of the mountains, it is very challenging, and it is not easy to follow the car. Even my 20-year-old driver feels quite difficult, and there is also a lot of pressure from the heavy truck behind. The cars in this area have all changed lanes. Last week, someone said it was blocked for five hours from Golden to Banff. Combined with my situation today, friends from Jasper or Banff back to Vancouver should be fully prepared ? Canada Q&A
