Ah! Got a $200 parking fine in Queenstown, so frustrating!

It's the third picture, ❌ at the end of the uphill road on Crown Holiday. (We stayed at Crown Holiday, but the parking lot charges were quite expensive) Many people parked there, and there was no sign indicating that parking was not allowed. As a result, 😂 I still got a ticket after 10 am, if I had left earlier, I probably wouldn't have needed to 😭 now I can only pay the fine online (see the last picture for the ticket). ... Here's a summary of New Zealand's traffic rules for everyone: 💡 They're quite strict, but there are few traffic police on the roads, so most of it relies on self-discipline. 💡 Although there aren't many traffic police, be careful of others reporting you, especially for overtaking on a solid line, which can easily lead to reports, and after three reports, a traffic police officer will come looking for you. ... For specific traffic rules, everyone can go to the New Zealand Visitor's Driving Theory Test🔗 to learn. Here are a few points I think are important: ① Keep left when driving, and remember not to take the wrong lane when turning. Of course, you need to figure out the positions of the wipers and turn signals. ② Turning vehicles must give way to vehicles going straight, you have to wait for the straight-going vehicles to pass before you can turn. ③ Vehicles at intersections must give way to pedestrians. ④ Do not overtake on solid lines, although there aren't many traffic police, you might be reported by others. ⑤ Do not speed. There will be speed signs along the road, on one hand, to prevent you from speeding, and on the other hand, to indicate the most comfortable and safest turning speed. ⑥ Single-lane bridge right of way. When passing through sections like a single-lane bridge, you will see two arrows on the road sign, one larger and one smaller. If your direction of travel has the larger arrow, it means you have the right of way, and the oncoming vehicles must yield to you.
