The voting is currently 50% each way. This contradicts what BWMA claim,
when they constantly say that the majority of British people do not want
metric on the roads. I don't remember what BWMA claim now, probably 90%
or so in favour of miles. But a poll by the Independent on Sunday showed
a 62% in favour of kilometres on UK roads.
The British public DO want KM instead of miles, if only the UK govt
would give us km instead of miles!!

Avoid confusion with conversion, just learn to think metric!
