New Traffic Rules

There are supposedly new traffic regulations as of July 1st. One banner says, 車讓人--斑馬線上“行人優先” Vehicles yield to people--in the pedestrian crossing, "pedestrians have priority" (it goes on to say that automobiles that do not yield to pedestrians will be fined 600-1800 Yuan).

The other says, 行人快過斑馬線、不要委違規過馬路 Pedestrians quickly cross the pedestrian crossing, and do not cross the street against regulations (it goes on to say that pedestrians who violate the regulations will be fined 360 yuan or will have to undergo 1 to 2 hours of classes.)

I suspect that neither will be properly enforced.
