signs
Road signs in the United Kingdom and in its associated Crown dependencies and overseas territories conform broadly to European design norms, with a number of exceptions: direction signs omit European route numbers, and road signs generally use the imperial units (miles and yards), unlike the rest of Europe (kilometres and metres). Signs in Wales (Welsh) and parts of Scotland (Scottish Gaelic) are bilingual.
A range of signs are used on British roads, such as motorway signs, warning signs and regulatory signs.
The United Kingdom signed the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on 8 November 1968 but has yet to fully ratify it.
