This was in 2002, but 1000 drivers in each country were questioned and asked if they'd been penalised for speeding in the last 3 years. You thought the UK was bad??

(I've a suspicion it will have jumped up the rankings by now though!)

Crumbs! Makes you wonder if folk will ever learn...
How dumb are the Netherlands if 46% are unable to correlate speedo with speed limit and such crap drivers that they cant even see the cameras
If I ever go there, I'm sticking to the canals, away from the clueless pot smoking numpties

Not so much crap drivers as sneaky camaras. They hide them in such things as dustbins over there I believe.

And no the dustbins are not painted yellow.........

I don't think the Dutch get points so they just pay the fines and get on with it

Enforcement rather road behaviour is difference... at least, that's what I would guess from the comparison with Belgium. They drive like loons there ime; don't think the Dutch are too bad really.

Oh the irony


I get at least one fine a year. Never costs more than what I earn in an hour and no points attached. I could afford to do it an awful lot more if I wanted. Dutch drivers are much more courteous than Brits and far more patient too.

And drive VERY slowly even though huge queues build up behind them, when on holiday in France, and tow caravans/trailer tents everywhere in France at 50kph, and drive around with lights on all day, even though it's 40 degrees in the shade and bright sunshine, and ride the world's most AWFUL bikes,..........
