In the summer of 1942, amidst the bustling activities of Petworth Air Training Corps at Fittleworth, a rural road sign caught everyone's attention. Bearing the code a082141 and identified as DDE-90026814, this unassuming sign became an unexpected focal point for curious onlookers. What made this particular road sign so intriguing was its unique design featuring a red squirrel. Positioned against a backdrop of vibrant blue, it seemed to beckon passersby with its two directions - an enigmatic invitation to explore new paths. But this mischievous squirrel had more surprises up its sleeve. Standing proudly next to another road sign, it boldly declared "Dual track for pedestrians and cyclists, " reminding all that harmony between different modes of transportation is essential in our shared spaces. Not stopping there, our furry friend continued its playful antics by posing beside various signs conveying important messages. One moment it stood resolute next to the "No left/right turn in junction" sign, emphasizing adherence to traffic rules and safety precautions. The next moment found our adventurous squirrel showcasing its rebellious side alongside the "No U-turn" symbol - a reminder that some roads are meant only for forward journeys and not for retracing one's steps. Undeterred by these restrictions, our audacious rodent companion then took center stage beside signs proclaiming "No vehicles" and "Speed limit 90. " Through these symbols, it urged us all to respect designated areas while maintaining responsible speeds on our highways. Ever vigilant about protecting others' well-being on the roads, this spirited creature also posed alongside signs indicating prohibitions such as "No motor vehicles with connected trailer, " highlighting the importance of safe towing practices. And let's not forget how determinedly our little hero stood beside signs forbidding specific vehicle types like tractors or motorized equipment class II. It reminded us that certain routes require specialized machinery or alternative routes altogether – knowledge crucial for a smooth and efficient journey.
