These are great Maj!!
I have a City Guide book for my hometown in Japan. The local City Hall produced it, and it is a really great effort in helping English speakers to feel at home here (thanks). There are a couple of amusing suggestions in the book;

DISASTERS
~
2) Prevention of fire
*DO NOT TOSS A CIGARETTE AND SMOKE IN BED. (OK, I'll find something else to toss, and I promise to smoke like a chimney.
*USUALLY KNOW HOW TO USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER. (I promise I will only forget sometimes)
.........

Japan is often troubled by earthquakes (local pronunciation is ASSQUAKES - cracks me up every time) so there is a local organisation to take care of these. The sign on the front of the building reads;

EARTHQUAKE COMMUNITY DISASTER CITIZEN PREVENTION CENTER I want to go in and find out more, but I am afraid of being labelled a 'Disaster Citizen' and added to the list of those who are to be prevented.

...........
I recently asked someone their hobby. "Taking care of the earth" was the answer, but due to local pronunciation I heard "taking care of the ass_". What a hobby!!

Yeah, go ahead...ask me a question, I'm smart, I have Stevin Hawkins in my library!

Here is one from Turkey,   

I saw it on the back window of a truck.      

"If I don't obey the traffic rules while driving, write Kul and send  3553"   If you send the message to this number a song will be downloaded to your mobile phone and you will hear a man singing "a human being can't be without mistakes, love me with my mistakes..."Smile [:)]
