Curious to hear your thoughts on the "Bridge Freezes Before Road Surface" signs.
To me, that seems like a sign where the "let nature sort it out" way of learning is too dangerous to just YOLO it sign-less (despite generally agreeing that we have too many warning signs).
- louthy 1y agoIf there’s an invisible danger, that could realistically cause a serious accident, then a sign makes sense. Only ever seen that sign in the US (driving through the Sierras). Never seen a similar UK version. I guess we must have superior bridges ;)
- sokoloff 1y ago;) I doubt it's a difference in chemistry or physics. Ambient temps play a large role, so the Gulf Stream's and elevation's influence does as well (dry adiabatic lapse rate is 5.5°F per 1000 ft or 9.8°C per km).
