      Is there such a thing in the US?

      Yeah.

      1. Whatever the heck I want, because “ma freedom”
      2. Police officer’s hand signs
      3. Traffic lights
      4. Signs on a pole
      5. Signs painted on the road

      Lately the trend is for temporary signs to have yellow background instead of white. So if you see road construction you’ll see a yellow background sign.

      in Europe, we have a hierarchy

      This is definitely not true for all of Europe. In Germany, for instance, signs on roads have equal precedence to signs on poles.

          That’s the neat part: They don’t. At least I have never seen confusing signage/markings.

              In Germany we actually test people before we let them drive cars. If you’re from the US, this concept might be unfamiliar :D

                This has nothing to do with the drivers, and more to do with municipal workers putting up signage.
