Traffic Signs

South Africans drive on the left side of the road. In the beginning it is all weird to sit on the wrong side and I still try to enter Karin's car from the wrong side from time to time. But I'm getting used to it.


Another thing are the always surprising street signs. I did learn that traffic lights are called robots, when someone describes a way. 
Tortoises crossing
drive slowly: baboons
dung beetles have right of way














On that way you might find signs warning you about crossing tortoises, baboons, or in Addo Elephan National Park they remind you that dung beetles have right of way.

no stopping
This is a sign which took me some time to figure out: "no stopping".
One more sign, which I wasn't able to capture so far is: "no hitchhiking" showing a crossed out fist with the thumb up.
