The very first question is one of my pet hates, I read it as you Do not not cycle here, so it's do cycle here! And I pass one frequently that some idiots erected!

Again recumbent trike so excluded
 
I thought number 1 was no cycling, not no bikes. You can still get off your bike and push it. Our local town centre is full of them and the only time police stop you is of you are cycling your bike rather than pushing it... Any how the bike racks in the town centre would be pointless if you were not allowed to push your bike to them!

It only applies to upwrong bicycles though

Recumbent trikes are not that shape and therefore OK


But ... If "do not not cycle" doesn't apply to mishapen bikes;), does that mean you can't cycle there?:wacko:^_^

Comfy armchair to one person & a plank to the next
The quiz is too inaccurate to be anything other than laugh, hope its author knows the law really and move on...
Talking of silly road signs, I do like this one recently introduced:

UFOs are not allowed to shoot at HGVS, but all other vehicles are fair targets
Where, why and what the heck does that mean?
