Re: Parking Ticket for USD 255, what do i do about it?

Ah, last thing to mention, the sign "PED XING" or just "XING" is very
confusing!

I've been thinking about its meaning for several days and just this
morning I figured out it might be "Cross-ing"!

Oh my god... when I figured that out, it is like worked out some very
difficult math problem. Though that feeling is good but that sign is
confusing too. I doubt how many foreigners can understand at the first
time they see it. Do you guys know any other tricky signs? I'd like to
know more. :-)
