Well, you make up for that signpost conformity by driving on the wrong SIDE
of the motorways! :-)

There's very little penetration of the US by the metric system. We have 2
liter soda bottles and 2 meter band radio but gas is still sold in gallons,
distance measured in miles and feet and weights still in pounds and ounces,
except maybe for drugs, licit and illicit. There was lots of talk a while
back about a forced conversion but it's as likely to happen as gay marriage.
It's difficult to force change of that magnitude on people.
