In North America at the moment, sure enough, people drive with their lights on - even more so than I remember. Relevant to previous posts about Asians in Taiwan and China driving with their lights off.

Shenzhen's "Keep Off the Grass" signs

Having lived off and on in Shenzhen for several years, I often see such Engrish signs on grassy patches between high-rises and office buildings (Shenzhen has actually done a good job in terms of the "green-ization" of its urban environment). These are creative takes on "keep off the grass" to attract the attention of Shenzhen's working masses.

The sign covered by Boing Boing says something like this in Chinese:

"Together you and I shall be the bodyguards of the green-ization!"
