one difference between germany and the netherlands

Pedestrians actually wait for the light to turn green before walking. Jaywalking is no longer the national sport, and the red light is now more of a command than it is a suggestion — although it can still be considered a temptation depending on the context.

As someone who giggles inside every time he does something he shouldn’t be doing (i.e. going above the speed limit, or taking a cheeky nibble of someone’s leftovers), this really stuck out to me.
