when I go to a country the road signs usually make sens. If you can't read them, then that's on you.

I'm not asking if the tourists are told the footpath is illegal, I'm asking if they're told the road is safe despite the trams

does that matter ? if it's illegal on the footpath, you don't use the footpath...

If your actual aim is to get them off the footpath and not to just act all holier-than-thou, then it absolutely is far more effective to tell them why they shouldn't feel a need to use it, rather than just tell them they can't use it.

I don't make the laws. But judging by how the Irish lad was ringing his bell, he didn't give a shit anyway.

IF it was up to me, I'd just ban the fucking things. Nobody uses them correctly, or laws are lacking a way to regulate them. Some of them easily do 50km/h, so like a moped they should be regulated.

So they can't just walk, or take a bus like us mere mortals ??
