Why don’t they have motorists get out and push their car across for junctions?

Am I supposed to get up off my trike and push it over such junctions. Probably fall over if I did that.

Why do national cycling routes direct you into a town and then the signage just stops?

The need to send reporters, to stand outside closed buildings, to tell us what happened there hours before

Or send them to stand outside in a storm to report there's a storm. Soaking wet, hair plastered across face, shouting into mic to be heard over the wind. Senseless.

Gosh yes that's irritating! It seems to be the norm too, like Sustrans only ever expected cyclists to use the NCN to get into to the very next town centre, roughly, and that'd be it. I've got the official Sustrans map booklets, and even then you have to use other means (Google maps, RWGPS etc) to try and work out where it starts again on the other side of the town. It's cost me multiple lost hours and wasted miles trying to get "back on" an NCN.

20mph speed restriction signs when lights are flashing near schools. Fair enough, I'll slow to 20 but when can I go back to 30mph? There is never a derestriction sign.
Realise I could probably look this up in Highway Code but never have.

That’s so funny as they can’t have their hood up or a hat in case you can‘t see their face clearly.

Why does a sign say 1 3/4 miles to a village then after 5 mins cycling you come across another sign and it is still 1 3/4 miles to the village.

Why do pedestrians not have to dismount from their feet and crawl across?Am I supposed to get up off my trike and push it over such junctions. Probably fall over if I did that.

Somewhere in flattest North Yorkshire you used to able to come to a T junction which said Richmond 8 miles to the left. If you took that road, at the next junction was another sign saying Richmond 8 miles, pointing back the way you've come.
