If you thought that removing all sorts of complicated traffic signs and rules would result in a complete break down of law and order ; than you thought wrong. Instead of anarchy (on which most of us would bet our money) the experimental move resulted in no traffic accidents when it was applied.

Just goes to prove that a little common sense goes a much longer way instead of a book full of laws. Its only when the drivers decide to leave their common sense at home - by drinking a few too many or texting while driving do we really get into trouble.

As for the subject on hand, the town of Bohmte, Germany implemented this radical new anti-traffic control procedure a month ago, there hasn't been a single accident on the busy roads.

The new policy, funded by a grant from the European Union, was an experiment to see if drivers and pedestrians might be better behaved if the government wasn't telling them what to do on the road. Now, there are only two steady rules in place: The maximum speed limit throughout the town is 30 miles an hour, and everyone must yield to the right.

This is down from at least one serious accident per week and numerous traffic infractions.
