The public transportation system here is great; clean, fast, cheap, air-conditioned and extremely simple to use. But things weren't always like this, in fact it used to be unruly, dangerous and shady. Since the passing of the Dark Ages, the transportation department has spruced it up with some sweet signage to avoid any problems. Here are a few choice examples...
As you can see, the subway is littered with questionable characters - there is a designated section for women and children to wait for the train under the watchful eye of a security camera. I'm not sure if it is working...
Don't even THINK of bringing your pet pigeons or fireworks collection. Pigeons already crap on cities too much, if they caught fire too it would be disastrous. Your dog is fine, as long as it is in your purse.
WHERE AND HOW DO WE WAIT FOR THE TRAIN?!?! Problem solved, pedestrian lanes! And they are used - yesterday I got caught in a six Taiwanese pile-up after a bucket of eels spilled onto the platform.
BUT WHAT IF THERE ARE NO LANES?!?! Form a queue behind this line.
Does this look like a jungle gym? They put these everywhere, even on walls! Any Spiderman impressions will not be tolerated.
If you are a diabetic and need a sugar fix, too bad. Just inhale a fistful of dust bunnies? Choke it down, or you will be fined $7,500 Taiwanese, or $0.83 US.
These suckers move fast, please hold handrail, seat belt is just under that.
You wouldn't want to known as a loose stander, would you?
After a couple weeks, I finally know how to properly use the escalator, check out my excellent form.
