  1. Consider most younger Americans never learned to drive manuals, then yes, manual transmission is the best anti-theft device in the USA.

  2. I'm guessing that Americans making assumptions everything is American is just being the part of the American bubble. At least, Ian already knew that Volkswagen, Audi, BMW and Bosch are German and IKEA is Swedish..

  3. Europe: "We need to protect pedestrians" US: "We need to protect drivers"

  4. It's funny how US is such a rich country, yet cashiers bag your shit.

  5.  @rogerk6180  USA is indeed a weird country, I wouldn't be surprised if some Americans start singing the national anthems before dinner or sleeping.
    42
  6.  @Sir_Cactus  Because historically it's been called Gulf of Mexico for centuries since parts of the US was Mexico at the time. Trump seem to not give a shit about history, he's just as ignorant as some Americans.

  7.  @Coladudetje  Average American comment.

  8.  @sebastiansauer5569  It would work better if the fines were €20,000 in Germany for violating by traffic law, same should apply to USA as well, fine drivers $20,000.

  9. Probably due to their patriotism, I wouldn't be surprised if Americans sing the national anthem in any sports games.

  10. People just like to call everything beautiful for "hidden" for some reason.
    28
  11. It's funny how USA is prone to get tornadoes, yet still use weak doors and well.
    28
  12. Most cars also look bit weird without a front plate, but at the same time, US front plates may block coolant more compared to the slimmer and wider European plates. Many European cars usually designed to have a front plate, as many American cars usually don't have a specific spot for a front plate.
    28
  13. Likely because US never mandated amber rear turn signals, and the fact US turn signals must be at least 50cm² or above for some reason.

  14. "Not sure if you know but in the UK we are taught to make space for ESV's" Not just the UK, every country in mainland Europe are taught to make space for emergency vehicles. Even US drivers must make space for emergency vehicles, but too many US drivers tend to ignore the sirens.
    22
  15. It's kinda funny that some Americans find Eiffel Tower ugly when Statue of Liberty was literally a present from France.
    22
  16. ​ @module79l28  But when Americans would be like: "Wait a minute... name like Bosch, Nestle, Husqvarna or Stihl doesn't sound American name" Well, Nestle might sound it could be an American brand, but American brands don't use accents marking on their names.
    21
  17.  @HaraldSeiwert  No country is perfect, but many countries in Europe still do lot of things better than the US.

  18. I think he meant "freezing cold" as freezing to death.

  19.  @Tommy-1214  Not necessarily, some countries use regions instead of counties. Some countries even replaced counties with regions.

  20. Country codes on products aren't always the same as ones found on license plates: Austria (AT) on products, however use (A) license plates and traffic signs. Belgium (BE) on products, however use (B) on license plates and traffic signs. Estonia (EE) on products, however use (EST) on license plates and some traffic signs. Finland (FI) on products, however use (FIN) on license plates and traffic signs. France (FR) on products, however use (F) on license plates and traffic signs. Greece (EL) on products, however use (GR) on license plates and traffic signs. Germany (DE) on products, however use (D) on license plates and traffic signs.

  21. Not being allowed to go pass a red light if there's an ambulance behind with blue lights is just stupid. If there's an ambulance, fire truck and police car with lights on behind, I'm pretty sure running a red while moving over is allowed in all countries in continental Europe.

  22.  @Blade-hf9po  How is it more helpful to you when no entry signs ⛔ without "DO NOT ENTER" text literally have the same meaning? Also the rectangular ONE WAY signs were literally adopted from Europe, albeit with black background instead of blue.
    15
  23. Why can't people just accept that some people prefer no ABS?
    15
  24. Very true. Regardless it's a manual or an automatic, you can still find yourself texting and driving, though still not advisable and highly illegal.
    14
  25. I'd say that Cybertruck makes every car look good. Cybertruck should've been towed away. Can't stand looking at the Cybertruck.

  26. It's funny how Germany people think this is a joke when it's a real video filmed in Germany, but not in their area.

  27. ​ @silesiaminers98  Sandero is a hatchback, but Sandero Stepway is a crossover version of Sandero

  28. After obtaining a CDL license doesn't immediately make you an expert the next day. People really forget that everyone starts as rookie or newbie.

  29. Bendy bus are also fun as a passenger, especially when you sit on the rear section that you can see the front of the section through the windows when turning.

  30. Didn't Sweden used Plymouth Valiant police cars once? Most of them are Volvo, but I'm sure some even use Ford E-350. Even some Swedish ambulance or fire services use Chevrolet Silverado.
    12
  31. Yeah I agree. What kind of idiot would call a SAAB ugly?
    12
  32. And yet Americans go on saying "I wish it's done like this here" or "I wish we have those here" when they see something, despite the fact they don't like to learn from other countries.
    11
  33. Everywhere you go, there will always be assholes. Even pedestrians do still face some assholes on the sidewalk.

  34.  @101steel4  Not only mum, their dad also teach their son or daughter to drive. It's funny how US does have driving schools, but their parents can still teach their 16 years olds how to drive. Good thing parents aren't allowed to teach their son or daughter to drive on public roads, in Europe, everyone will need a proper driving instructor doing proper driving tests. Also our driving tests are longer and getting a license in more expensive as it should be.

  35.  @Sciss0rman  Autobahn does have sections where 130km/h is enforced, so how is 130km/h like parking?

  36. Even if window has 2 or 3 panes of glass, you can kinda still hear horns and sirens, but they're less loud with windows closed.

  37. All road-legal cars MUST have turn signals installed, that also includes BMW. I hate when people say "Oh BMW DoEs NOt HaVE TurN siGnALs InStallEd"

  38. Yeah I find it funny when Americans say "we can do whatever they want" as if they're forgetting that US have laws. Most states doesn't even allow jaywalking, yet in Europe it's legal to cross any street unless there's a pedestrian crossing nearby.

  39. In fact many city streets are even more than 350 years old, most of them are likely 1000+ years old.

  40.  @la-go-xy  No really, red ⭕generally mean prohibition, obligation are blue 🔵 they're normally called mandatory signs.

  41. It's a 1st generation model, sold from 1997 - 2004.

  42. Even if you import European doors and windows, the house wouldn't even withstand a F1 tornado and still easily collapse. US houses are held buy wooden beams and walls are thin.
    8
  43.  @ianjardine7324  Even if US houses has them, they won't work. While they might protect the glass in doors and windows during a hurricane, but the house will likely collapse US houses still use plywood and very thin walls.

  44. Part of reason of driver awareness in remarkable, most European countries, fines are really expensive and people don't want to lose their license. Also getting a license in Europe is really expensive, it's not like Australia and North America where drivers basically pull a license out of assholes.

  45.  @Grover91  Do you go around asking people to break up with their partner/spouse?

  46.  @rolflin  Literally! Many things are older than the US and yet these Americans still don't seem to understand it.

  47. While his comparison with „children at play“ might be accurate might be valid, but it's probably not as helpful for non-English speaking drivers compared to this. Vienna Convention signs are hell a lot easier for any driver to understand compared to MUTCD, regardless what country the driver is from. Also unlike the US, when exiting the zone, Vienna Convention also have the same sign, but with a diagonal line across it.

  48.  @ilkkak3065  Why do people on YT comment always say someone disrespectful like "Sounds like you shouldn't drive" or "You shouldn't be driving" when they actually don't know them in real life?

  49.  @adrien5834  But Day/Month/Year is commonly used in majority of Europe

  50. I don't get why people defend these stupid detachable caps?
