@davepb5798 Sweden and Finland is still a part of not just Europe but the EU. nd they have higher limits. In Sweden they got a limit of 74 tons from what I understand without needing a exemption... Norway, Switzerland, Russia, Ukraine and so one is also part of Europe by the way... Even Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia are partially within Europe depending on what definition of Europe you're using.

4:17 Not doing all of them is perfectly fine. It takes time to get used to all. While only the US and two other countries are using imperial as standard there's still several other countries that's in the transmission state and still occasionally use imperial or other units instead of metric ones for individual measurements. Converting all at once is tough, so don't worry about it. Trying to learn and improve is the important part. Not feeling ready for all of it at once is perfectly fine however. Your neighbours to the north for instance is using several imperial units, they'll measure height of a person in feet and inches and short distances in meters for instance... And younger people use more metric then older people etc. The same applies here in Europe, we've mostly converted in most European countries, but the occasional non-metric unit can be found in most countries.

80 000 pounds is just 36 metric tons according to a quick and dirty google conversation... I might of course be doing something wrong... Compare that to the limit in Sweden (74 metric tons) and Finland (76 metric tons) for trucks without any special permits... With a permit the limit in Finland is over 100 tons. Other countries have lower limits. In Norway it's 50 tons unless you get a permit for more.
