We always felt safe and protected in Taiwan as there are many warning/cautionary signs strewn around the city: walking line, mind the platform gap, no loud speaking, no running, please do not climb up, caution glass, do not stay in the doorway, no food, no pets, no smoking, No Smoking: violators will be fine!, Notice: do not walk dogs, play balls and remote control airplanes to maintain the safety of the square. thanks for your cooperation; photography prohibited, no climbing and no trespassing, watch your step, prohibited from entering, no graffiti, no touching, watch your steps on the stairs; The toilet is easy to block, please do not throw toilet paper in the toilet; no standing on the toilet seat; don't cross the line please;please keep off the grass, use sidewalks; please fasten your seat belt properly; on escalators: Hold the handrail and luggage, stand firm, mind your long skirts and shoelaces, ride safely; coming off the escalator: No lingering! Danger! Deep water, please don't sit or step on the windows, at crosswalk: Look right, please line up for photos; please do not carve and damage; Danger! Beware of large waves!, Dangerous! Do not Cross.

We seemed to notice all these signs especially after having lived in Moscow where there is not even a warning to enormous holes along construction zones. Warnings are beginning to appear but it will take time to get as efficient as Asia.
