Originally posted by RICHARD L. Thank you all for your humourous quips. I think Caltrans was repainting the yellow lines on the Pacific Coast Highway (Route 1) in the middle of the road and didn't want cars to cross over and mess the fresh paint spray.
I figured it must be something like that.

I'm a hard core manual transmission guy. I've never (for my daily driver at least) owned an AT and I'm 72 years old. I've visited the UK twice and rented cars with manual transmissions (try doing that in the US) . It takes a little getting used to but not much and it was fun, as were the roundabouts.
