Switching is effort when there's infrastructure involved. Much like changing all the pub glasses, you'd have to change all the road signs, the driving test, and the speedometer in every single person's car!

    I always assumed for signs it would be a case of stickers (like they do already for other changes) and then replacement over time as signs got renewed. I guess to go all out, we might need to move exit markers slightly given they're spaced 100 yards apart I think, but they're close enough to 100m for it to probably be fine

    I think most cars for as long as I remember can do both

    Changing the test just seems like a bit of bureaucracy, but maybe I'm simplifying that in my head

    Good points actually! I suppose it would be doable, but it would probably be a massive expense (and hassle!) ultimately for not that much of a gain, so I can't imagine any politician actually stumping up the cash for it.
