So do you think the roads would be, overall, safer, if all signs (say except
direction signs) and lining schemes were removed?

Probably depends on the location. Some roads have been made safer by
doing just that. Certianly the experience where roads have been
treated with lots of paint and signage has often been that drivers
simply speed up and the crash rate remains unchanged.
