Why do they not have cones protecting the aspects of the signal in Jersey?

Looks really ugly. Also, why does the Isle of Man have so many STOP signs rather than GIVE WAY?

Something to do with no speed limit + bikers I suspect.

There is also the Filter In Turn system used on Jersey and Guernsey. On approaching a filter junction you are required to give way to one vehicle, whichever direction it is coming from, and then have priority over the next vehicle approaching from the same direction. It seems strange to begin with but it works well while traffic volumes are low.

This sounds similar to the 4-way Stop Street that I got used to in South Africa. Often, in the middle of nowhere such as here you would come across the four-way stop street. All that this picture does not show is a small shrub with a motorbike pulled up alongside it and a policeman waiting to ticket the unwary motorist.
