What % of the people today will remember those signs.

Don't they still exist?

Maybe on some remote lane, today most show 12% or similar not 1 in 4. School sign also changed, no beacon on them now.

Oh, I see - I thought you were implying that signs warning of 'steep hills' no longer existed (which sounded very odd), rather than just a change in which the degree of steepness was expressed.

School sign also changed, no beacon on them now.

Indeed - but I think the great majority of road signs have changed, in one way or another, since you and I were kids, haven't they?

During my first driving test, I was asked what signs I could expect to see down country lanes. "Eggs for sale" was my answer.

Many of the old signs were designed so if covered in snow you have an idea what the sign may have said, so the T shaped stop, and the apex up or down, sign rectangle or round.
