Ah. I keep forgetting that outside of Quebec, drivers actually have to *read* the road signs as they pass them by. Guess I'm spoiled by the International pictographic signalisation where you can tell on the highway, from half a klick away, where a "no-passing zone" actually begins.

So I keep imagining myself playing the game, craning my neck over to look into a curiosity shop window for the letter "Q"... Then inadvertently causing a fender-bender in front ;)
