Default Unenforceable banned right turn in Highgate London

At the north end of South Grove in Highgate,
North London, are no-entry signs with text
beneath reading "No Entry Except From East".


I don't see how anyone could be successfully
prosecuted for doing a right turn here.


Agreed that it would be easier for all concerned if TPTB
erected appropriate signs but why does everything have
to gave a law requiring people to behave in a certain
fashion or possess a specific item of knowledge?


Huh?

Are you seriously suggesting that most people don't
know which compass direction a road lies along?


Yes! Even if you did know, you could easily deny it. Many cars do the right
turn here.
