    You argument is brief and yet still flawed. If the signs that are there are being ignored then why have them at all? Adding signs does not fix the problem.

    When we have a road system that thinks this kind of signage is acceptable we have a problem. While I do not advocate the removal of all signs and rules, they are currently overused.

    We need to simplify our lives not make them more complex, but don't go too far. For example, the article says "We're getting rid of the division between cars and pedestrians." Last time I checked, people and cars to not mix too well (usually the people come of worse in confrontations). Keeping pedestrians and vehicles separate is a sensible step in reducing the probability of coincidence and should remain.
