Shownotes Transcript

Do you know the traffic signs? I mean the common ones. I'm not so sure about some of them any more. On the one hand because I rarely pay attention to them as a cyclist, and on the other because I practically never drive a car and therefore don't have such a trained eye. I recently learned that modern cars can automatically recognise traffic signs and then trigger appropriate manoeuvres or actions such as speed reduction or staying in a lane. Of course, this is great, relieving, can help to concentrate on the traffic - but: it also makes me illiterate, I forget, become more dependent and, in the worst case, can no longer decide correctly when I see a sign I no longer know. Transferred to life: stay active and learn more and more to recognise the signs in your life, what they mean. Do they warn you or should they even save you from a one-way street or make you slow down? Such signs of circumstances have the intention to bring you safely to your destination.

I wish you an extraordinary day!
