Signs to mind
These are two important warnings you'll see in London: Mind the Gap means don't fall between the Undergound (subway) platforms and the train. Also there are no guardrails - the length of the station is the length of the stopped train. You don't want to fall onto the electrified track! LOOK RIGHT is a reminder that traffic uses the opposite side of the road from the US. So when crossing a street you look RIGHT first, not left. The traffic moves very quickly. London cabs are made with low front fenders so they don't injure pedestrians so severely - hopefully. These warnings are painted on the street at many intersections.
