1 / 4認得Recognize看到這個英文,我知道它大概是什麼。I see it, and I know roughly what it is.

Tow-Away Zone

TOH-uh-way zohn

拖吊區

견인 구역

Where you'll see it你會在哪裡看到

  • 路邊的停車告示牌
  • 商場和公寓停車場入口
  • 私人車道的出入口
  • 掃街或活動的臨時告示

What it actually means白話說

停在這裡的車可能會被拖走。車子被拖到拖吊場之後要自己去領,通常還要付拖吊費和保管費。牌子上常會寫時段或星期,那是這條規定生效的時間。

Common mistake常見的誤會

No Parking 和 No Stopping 是兩件事。No Stopping 更嚴,連暫停讓人上下車都不行。細節各州、各城市不同,以牌子上寫的為準。

Often right next to it旁邊常出現的字

  • No Parking不能停車 주차 금지
  • No Stopping連暫停都不行 정차 금지
  • Any Time任何時間 언제나
  • Unauthorized Vehicles沒有許可的車 무단 주차 차량
  • At Owner's Expense費用由車主付 차주 부담
