That"s the view of transport experts who say there"s a "recipe for disaster" looming should the Euro-style road signs be adopted, as suggested, in the next five years. The UK Metric Association (UKMA) is pushing for the abolition of imperial miles and yards on Britain"s 1.5 million road signs in a new report, claiming there would be many benefits in converting to metres and kilometres. The group has listed examples such as the easier calculation of fuel economy and uniformity with other EU nations as key reasons for undertaking the ÷£80m scheme.
And it has on its side the ex-Labour leader Neil Kinnock, who said in the UKMA report: "Our imperial road signs are the most obvious example of the muddle of measurements in the UK. If we follow these recommendations, we can join the modern metric world."
Transport Secretary Alistair Darling is understood to be lukewarm on the plans, as is the AA Motoring Trust. Spokesman Paul Watters said: "The change will create danger and anger, particularly where confusion leads to prosecution for speeding. A patchwork of metric and imperial signage in the UK would be a recipe for disaster."
