yup, its the crosswalk. what i was trying to say was it doubles up as emergency lane for the fireengines and ambulance.

i am from asia and we walk there to everywhere, to school, work, shops, etc. traffic is a nightmare. i have a very healthy respect and concern for pedestrians. as i mentioned earlier, i stopped short, rolled forward into the lane, stopped again to watch for oncoming traffic, which is when the camera caught me.
anyways, i will try contesting it, knowing fully well that i will just have to pay the fine in the end.
