    Having not traveled that particular stretch in a while, I won't comment on the visibility, but I have a few thoughts;

    • Ring Road definitely has the overhead variable speed signs as well as additional permanent signs at various points that advise of issues ahead.

    • She was doing 77km/h - was this just because she had previously seen an 80 sign, or did she realise that it was a reduced speed and felt that 40km/h was ridiculous (I admit, depending on the protection to the workeds (ie. if there's cement bollards and space between them, I'd get impatient doing 40km/h, but I'd still do it).

    • Even if it wasn't well signposted, is this still a case of complacency? If I see a temporary sign (LED, etc) I make an effort to see it and follow what it says.
