Up until the 90ies, even "private" landline telephones in homes in Germany were not private but owned by the postal services and you had to rent them for a monthly fee. It was forbidden to connect "unlicensed devices" to the telephone network. Which made almost every early internet adopter comitting a serious crime when using a modem and also the many adopters of the new cordless phone models coming to market. Why this offtopic random fact? Well, the german law proposed a higher maximum sentence for this particular violation than for "causing a nuclear explosion" (which actually is still verboten, as far as I know :)

@@Martina-Kosicanka Section 32 of the Salmon Act is headed "Handling Salmon in Suspicious Circumstances". This section creates an offence in England and Wales or Scotland for any person who receives or disposes of any salmon in circumstances where they believe, or could reasonably believe, that the salmon has been illegally fished. Essentially, this is a provision aimed at reducing salmon poaching by making the handling of poached salmon a criminal offence. :)

What is now cocidered Belgium always had been part of the Netherlands, but turmoil in Europe devided the North and South. They were first ruled together by the Spanish, and then the Austrians. The Dutch revolted against these powers, but the Belgians weren't able to. After the French revolution the Low Countries were actually reunited again, but, with backing from France, the French speaking part of Belgium revolted against being ruled by the Dutch, with successful outcome this time.

With mirrors you usually need to add 10-15cm to the official width of a car, which is just the body. Most modern cars are between 190-205cm in width, meaning that with mirrors almost all modern cars are over 2 meters wide. Usually where it says 2m you can easily fit through at 2.05m, so quiet a few cars have no problems, but yes, most modern cars are over 2m wide, and are thus not legally allowed to go through this area (or the left lane in narrow roadworks).
