Perhaps they were foreign?

They would have given it away by going round the roundabout the wrong way.
Unless they were Irish, Maltese or Cypriot - or really foreign.

My favourite sign in Stafford.
This is in Parker's Croft Road, a fifty yard long cul-de-sac with no humps in it and only two houses.
Presumably, trying to read the 'mind' that spent public money on this sign, it is intended to warn that, should you drive straight across Wolverhampton Road into Garden Street, there are actually some humps there. Of course, there is another sign warning of humps at the entrance Garden Street, as you might expect, but you could miss that in the excitement.

What load of "rising bollards" as proclaimed by the sign entering Gaolgate street from Gaol Square
Speaking to an officer, the reason for the action yesterday was the complaints by pedestrians, local businesses and the bus service.
Non serious incidents occured in the last 2 weeks one of which involved a pedastrian and car coming down the one way area from south walls onto Mill Bank and hitting a teenager, fortunately lack of speed led to no injury- bloody lucky.
I pointed out to an officer the broken flower bed wall at the mill bank roundabout that someone has clearly collided with very recently, though he knew nowt about how it occured.

To be fair not sure why all the police bashing.
They put themselves in the firing line for us when needed look at this year alone. At the end of the day they are only doing their jobs and acting on peoples complaints/ concerns, which is what they should do and it seems there have been people reporting the issue ( I reported one) and incidents.
They should act before someone is killed or maimed in this area, regardless of what sections of that roundabout is a grey area, there is no debate from south walls and personally that is what I see as the main issue. Prevention I guess is as important as solving.

There aren't really any grey areas, just lack of grey matter. Using a No Motor Vehicles sign is, perhaps, a leap of faith, when few people would really know what it means. A No Entry might be better - few cyclists or equestrians use the route anyway, but premises access needs to be maintained, of course.
Block paving Bridge Street has made it 'look' pedestrianised, I suppose, especially with it being not accessible to most from the other end.

340yds!! I'd be happy if I could hump for just the 40yards.My favourite sign in Stafford.

The thing is, that you've only just started and then you have to get across Wolverhampton Road before the proper humping gets going.

Chell Road is the route to the Sainsbury’s roundabout from the top of the high street isn’t it? Do the people who introduce these rules actually drive anywhere?

For 340 yards? Kinky.
