Regarding the article mentioning that stop signs in Canada are now
bilingual and have STOP and ARRET, in France the stop signs just say STOP.
Interestingly enough, the original international road sign fot
stop was an inverted triangle (like the yield sign ) circumscribed
by a red circle, with the word HALT in the middle.
About the time that the US started using the international road signs,
the US style stop sign was adopted as an international standard.
