    In Europe, I look carefully at the pedestrian crossing signs, as they are highly consistent within each country. For example, in Norway, Sweden, and Bulgaria, the stick figure man is walking across four stripes. In Estonia, Ukraine, and Russia, there are three stripes. A good reference is the Wikipedia page “Comparison of European road signs”, subsection “Special Regulations”. 🚶‍♂️

    tip: if you are torn between sweden or norway, play the percentage, if you see mountains, higher risk of being norway. sweden has mountains, but they are not as incorporated. if you see rolling hills and vast forest, probably sweden. if you see just forest without any hills, finland.

      To make it more difficult the signs in certain areas of Finland might be only in swedish. That can happen in Åland and in some towns on the coast that have mostly swedish speaking residents. In northern Lapland you can also see sami language on the signs with finnish.

    Another tip for Switzerland:
    The word „Straße“ (street) on street signs in Switzerland is spelled as „Strasse“. This I believe, is due to the „ß“ not being in Swiss Standard German.

    Fantastic video, I’ve watched a few of your tip videos but this one that got me to subscribe. Quite a few things in here that I didn’t know or had forgotten. A couple things of the top of my head:
    •Croatia often does not have the blue stripe on the license plates (I don’t think you mentioned this but I could be wrong). However, you will see the blue license plate stripe in Zagreb, because that is the only place in Croatia to be covered since Croatia switched plate styles.
    •Czechia and Slovakia have distinctive house number plates, in both countries there are usually two plates. Czechia has a red and a blue background with white numbers and often a street name. Slovakia has white backgrounds with a red and a blue border and have roman numerals in addition to numbers, but rarely any text. Chimera has a great map for practicing this!
    •I’m sure this is in your poles video (which I’m about to watch), but the baltic countries love those leaning poles for support. I’ve also seen them in Russia and occasionally elsewhere.
    •North Macedonia, Greece, Iceland, Sweden, and Finland are the only countries that use warning signs with a thick red border and a yellow inside.
    •Denmark’s roads have those tiny little dashes along the sides that are very close together. (If you haven’t already made one, a road markings video could be a good idea!)
    •Finland is flatter than other Nordic countries and tends to have a lot more unpaved roads, in my experience.
    I’m sure you’re familiar with most of these, but they could be useful for any commenters scrolling through looking for more knowledge!
    Edit: Of course, this is meant as a beginner/intro video, so it makes sense that you couldn’t include everything.

    An explanation for the green license plates in Norway is that vans can be registered as "cars for goods" and be exempted from some taxation, if there are only two or three seats and the back of the car/van is able to store a box of a certain size. There is usually a sort of wall separating the back of the car and the seats in front. No back seats.

    Dunno if anyone has mentioned this already but UK car registration plates are yellow only on the back, at the front they are white. Also with Irish signs they tend to be in both English and Irish (Gaelic).

    Very useful video, thank you!
    Just to add something, if you see 'carrer' or 'avinguda' on street name you're in Spain, Catalan speaking (Catalonia, Valencia or Baleares) or Andorra. For some reason most of the time I get Spain in country streak it's in Barcelona. You can also see these words in Andorra as Catalan is one of their languages.
    In Spain you can also find Galician and Basque, you can search how they say street if interested.
    Also, I believe caddesi means avenue in Turkish, useful if you don't recognize the language.

    Good video! I see a problem with your spreadsheet though, you write countries instead of languages. Take Norway for example, you can have streetsigns in different Sami languages up north, with other letters!
    And you also marked q, but not é for Norway. Neither would be common on street signs, and yes, q is in the alphabet and not é, but é is probably more common in Norwegian than q is. You also find more rare ones like ü, è, ô etc.

      Thanks for the feedback! The spreadsheet is meant to determine the country you might be in GeoGuessr, that's why they are separated by countries and not languages. :)

      @@GeoPeter Oh, I think my comment was removed because I had links to Google Maps.
      Anyway, it makes sense it's for the country of course. However, it's wrong no matter how you look at it. Norwegian has symbols over certain letters and Sami languages have letters like ö, đ (despite of your claim at 16:45), č etc. You might find official street signs that's only in Sami and no Norwegian translation even.
      Usually it might be fine to go by your spreadsheet, but one should be careful. Though if you include Q, I see no reason not to include the other stuff

    Italy has narrow front plates bcs of alfa romeos. They have the front car symbol designed in a way that front plate can be only set up asymetrically meaning wither left or right of the center and id they were longer it would be bummer. Just google alfa romeos and you will find both wioth italian and non italian plates. You will notice how terrible non italian front plates look on alfas.

    You said, that -weg would be the street name in the Netherlands. That is true, but -weg can also be found in Germany, Austria and Swizzerland. In this case it could name a smaller street.
