The sign you are seeing is a stark and memorable warning often seen in rural areas of Scotland. It reads: "No doctor, no hospital, one cemetery," and its purpose is to emphasize the dangers of speeding on remote roads. These areas typically lack immediate access to medical facilities, meaning that accidents can have severe consequences due to delayed emergency response times. The sign serves as a sobering reminder to drive carefully and respect speed limits, especially in regions where help might not be readily available.
It's a powerful example of how road safety messages can be tailored to local conditions to make a lasting impact. Have you come across this sign during your travels, or are you planning a trip to Scotland? I have obviously photographed this one, its message is quite STARK!!!
