They've made up an acronym, then, to use on a perfectly acceptable existing instruction word. SLOW = less fast.....

Yes boxtops - see my post above.
It's more of a road safety slogan than an official interpretation of the road marking which just means - slow.

Slaney, short, concise, and to the point: an excellent answer including the word "slogan" and not "acronym". By the way, Neenee, glade you appreciated and learned from the course.
