  If that isn’t it I don’t know what the joke is. Maybe Americans are so stupid that they accidentally make the right choice?

  What does “mph” mean to you?

  British road signs will mark that a junction is “1m” away meaning “1 mile” (to distinguish it from other contexts where it might say “300 yards")

    Interesting, I didn’t realize that. In the US we use “mi” for miles to clarify that we don’t mean meters lol
