A dual carriageway is a divided highway.
"Give way" is the same as "yield".
A lorry is a truck.
A layby is a place to pull off the road. A queue is a line, such as in line of cars or line of people, etc.
The next sign warns that there is a traffic camera.
So, what do you do if a car is coming in the middle of the road??
If there is a turn-off coming up, first there will be a sign with 3 slashes, then a sign with 2 slashes, and then the 1-slash sign tells you that you are to the turn-off.
The verge of the road is the shoulder.
This sign is for a round-about (traffic circle). Trading estates are shopping centers.
The following is the symbol for the national speed limit. The national speed limit is 70 for divided highways (dual carriageways) and 60 for two lane roads (if marked by the national speed limit sign).

Those are great! I got most of the same ones except for the tow-away scheme. It's sad when the signs are infinitely more entertaining than the British TV!
I thought Chevron was a gas station.
How long did it take you to figure all of those out? Did they give you some kind of driving manuel when you picked up the car there? lol
I love your blog entry about the signs. That was fun to read.
