Clues that help
- Driving side: cars drive on the left in the UK and Ireland, on the right everywhere else.
- Licence plates: most EU plates have a blue strip with the country code on the left. Yellow plates appear in the Netherlands and at the rear in the UK.
- Script: Cyrillic points to Bulgaria, Serbia, North Macedonia or Ukraine, Greek letters to Greece.
- Special letters: å, ø and æ lead to Scandinavia, ł and ą to Poland, ő and ű to Hungary, ş and ţ to Romania.
- Bollards and signs: the white posts along the road look different in almost every country, and so does the colour of town signs.
- Landscape: olive groves and dry hills in the south, birches and lakes in the north, flat land in the Netherlands and northern Germany.
