I saw this being mentioned in another thread, but that thread's locked now.

Nung una kong nakita to, nabanas ako, feeling ko pauso nanaman, not even a good one at that. Took me a while too to figure out it meant "pedestrian crossing".

So, imagine my surprise when I saw the exact same sign... in CALIFORNIA! Somebody asked if this was an international symbol or something. Go figure.

Does anyone here know more about this? International or not, I still think it's lousy and uninformative! :D
