It had nothing to do with Jack's URL, and you are incapable of offering me any assistance, which I really don't need. It's not like you can fix the problem with Jack's URL. > > With no map, there is not going to > > be anything above the map.

Jack was giving one to a specific area. There was no city, state, zip code, or any other data that would have allowed me to find what he was talking about on my own. There's no way I'll get a link to what Jack was talking about. -- My real name backwards: nemuaZ lliB |

No, sorry it does. What is currently deployed where I live is extremely effective. I suspect you live somewhere where traffic monitoring is rather less advanced than where I live. > > > > Go to <http://maps.google.com/>.

Where you live is not the whole country. Given your comments about Jack's URL and how Google works, I really don't believe you anyway. > > It had nothing to do with Jack's URL, and you are incapable of offering > > me any assistance, which I really don't need.

Typing http://maps.google.com into my browser is not going to tell me anything about why Google didn't like Jack's URL when used on my browser. -- My real name backwards: nemuaZ lliB |

Thanks. I think I have a good position. They changed their arguments several times during the administrative proceedings, as I now got to know when I viewed the file: The original order had no specific reasons at all ("The traffic signs are ordered for regulating right-of-way in the roundabout", which has nothing whatsoever to do with cycle path usage obligation). Then it was uniform traffic regulations, HGV traffic, slope, and finally way to school for children ... The file also says something about "political wish of mayor and council", which seems to be the only relevant reason. Furthermore, the file is IMO incomplete. A hearing (written, I suppose) of relevant public authorities (like traffic police, ...) was conducted, and there also have to be some papers about those political wishes. I will point that out to the court and the rapporteur will probably demand that papers from the city ... Even better, their traffic law knowledge seems to be from 1998, they are not willing to accept the relevant court rulings after that time ... |
