  1.  @GettingNervous  What? Nobody is saying you have to drive in the wrong direction for a while? You'd see the traffic signs when you get to the parking spot. You just stop on the road (which you'd do if you'd park on either side) and just happen to find a spot on the other side of road, which on a small street like in the video really isn't a big deal. It's not like there's oncoming traffic with 50 km/h driving towards you.

  2. 16:57 This is in the Netherlands where I'm from, and literally every set of gates has at least one that is wider than the other ones so that people with wheelchairs/strollers/bikes and stuff can get through. Most of them are not, because most Dutch people can very comfortably fit through these gates... If the maker of this video would just look around for like 2 seconds they would see that there is one that's wider (the ribbled tiles to help blind people even lead to them). Outside of some anchient train stations that are up for renovation, every train station that needs one (most small train stations are at street level) has elevators. Either the maker of this video is extremely stupid and somehow didn't notice, or purposfully left it out of the video to make a disengenious video trying to make 'Europe look bad'. Or more likely it's just rage bait for clicks.

  3.  @GettingNervous  In the Netherlands where I'm from it depends on the street, on a lot of streets it's quite common (basically any street with low traffic), simply because people just park wherever there is space to park, which might very well be on the 'wrong side of the road'. I'm pretty sure in small streets this is true pretty much everywhere in Europe? I've seen it in quite a few European countries for sure, including Germany and Sweden... It just only happens on like small residential streets, usually in old town centers, where being on the wrong side of the road for a minute is not really dangerous, since any oncoming traffic would have plenty time to just stop, if the road even has any markings at all.
