Oh, I have some few more observations (thanks also to Martina pointing out these subtle differences).

Green blinking traffic light

It’s a genius idea – but only a very few countries realized that till now. In Austria, just before the traffic light turns orange/red, the green light blinks 4 times to indicate the driver to push down accelerator pedal avoiding to get a fine due to crossing a red light  to let the car coast towards the crossing economically.

The ratio dogs / human

Here in Carinthia, I feel like everybody owns 5 dogs. At least it sounds like that. Not sure if this is just pure love to these animals or if they are simply afraid being a victim of a crime. Or maybe it’s even an arms race between neighbors …
