| Unlike many other countries Australia uses a different sign
as a warning for roadworks (machinery on the road) and
the actual presence of men on the road.
The drawing of the man comes close to (the blade of the
spade is visible) the
South-African version of the UK-sign
(blade burried in the heap). |

This sign was placed where it should have been:
on the left side of the road, and thus suggests right-hand
driving. (Our team-bible says: Men at work always
turn their back to the traffic - See Great Britain)
Our scientific watchguard (does this guy ever takes a nap?)
suggests another explanation not requiring a breaking of the
rules in our bible.
A simple (and easy to check, if you are on the spot) assumption suffices.
I trust my readers can work it out without me writing it all down. |
