Here in Finland we just wait for snow, then you can’t see the painted one.
Which is why it was such a great idea to replace our solid “you can’t pass here” lines from their old bright yellow to EU matching white so that that self driving cars understand them correctly. Which during the winter means both of us or the machines can’t see shit.
This is definitely not true for all of Europe. In Germany, for instance, signs on roads have equal precedence to signs on poles.
What do you do if they contradict?
Sit there untill either the sign or the paint fade away

That’s the neat part: They don’t. At least I have never seen confusing signage/markings.
You sure have a lot of faith in people.
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.
