UK - LONDON Pensioners’ groups called for the road sign depicting old people to be scrapped because it is insulting. Age Concern and Help the Aged said that the hunched figure with a walking stick, above, should be replaced with a new image. Barry Earnshaw, Age Concern Lincoln chief executive, said: “The sign doesn’t represent older people as they are today. There should be a generic sign that is representative of all vulnerable pedestrians, regardless of age.” A Highways Agency spokesman said that new signs would be costly and require a change in the law.
