I think it still very much depends where in Europe you do that

[-] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Italy, to be exact. Maybe doing the same in Germany would make me end up with a fine

Yeah, in Germany you would maybe get in trouble, however this really, depends on where you're walking. But usually our sidewalks are big enough(as long as it isn't completely blocked by parking cars) so that you can walk there safely.

This is more a case of Germany's excessively law-abiding culture, IMO. It's the same in East Asia: people waiting like zombies at a red pedestrian light even tho there's not a car in sight.

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 1 points 2 months ago

That's also true

[-] Opisek@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Definitely not true in residential areas of Germany.

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 1 points 2 months ago

I don't know where you live, but for my village I can say, that our sidewalks are big enough to comfortably walk there.

Unfortunately that is very likely.
