Now, what does the speed indicator show? Miles per hour or km per hour?
If you have fully converted except for road signs your new cars should display
km per hour. Within a few years all drivers would demand the change of road
signs too. :-)

Maybe time to look at a new car (just to check what the meter says)? ;)

As long as they can down a pint or two before getting out on the road, whats
to worry about?

Notice how clever the wording is in 80/181/EEC, "returnable containers".
It is actually the fact that you return the glas to the pubowner that allows
him to sell you it in pint. Otherwise he would have to sell you a half a liter
of beer. So you better return the glas to get that extra beer!

Cheers,
