Just been back from a trip round Europe and am amazed at some of the safetyism that is rampant in the UK. Let me give two examples that make no sense to me. The first was one of the pavements was dug up, with copious amounts of barriers wrapped around the hole. Even so there was still a sign that said foot path closed. Like really? You need a sign over and above the barriers and the hole itself? And as ever you know what people did…they just walked on the road to get round the hole.
