Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

THE United Nations' . Economic Commission for Europe has pro posed more " unified " traffic-law measures, including these: All windows of vehicles—not just windscreens—should be of non-splintering material; and a new road sign, with white figures on a blue disc, should be introduced to denote Milli-MUM permissible speeds.

Some non-conforming road signs used in countries subscribing generally to the 1949 protocol are now to be included in the international catalogue of signs, while in other cases governments have been asked to withdraw non-standard signs.

Reasonable speed limits outside builtup areas do not hamper traffic flow, but may even improve it, the Commission reports.
