After a very heavy snowfall it was difficult to distinguish the pavements from the road. Not surprisingly there was very little traffic about. The device on the post on the left is a solar powered speed indicator. Despite this road having a 30 mph speed limit, probably because there are two sharp bends ahead, most motorists completely ignore this. When they do, a screen indicates the speed they are travelling in red. One day there is going to be a nasty accident when someone loses control of their vehicle and ploughs into pedestrians.
