@stux@mstdn.social@notjustbikes Doesn't this picture have it all? Public trasit, US & EU cars and the point!
@stux @notjustbikes How are those cars even allowed? Is this in Belgium or Netherlands?
@stux@mstdn.social@loke @notjustbikes I have no clue!
This seems like amsterdam, but it could be any other larger city
It's Rotterdam :)

parkeren op zijn Rotterdams... I lived in R'dam for 9 years, car drivers there are a bit crazy, compared to other parts of Randstad...
it's of course not allowed, surely police should be there any minute. And the owner might have to pay a fine proportional to their income (at least for certain kinds of "hightway code" breaking). In R'dam the fine for illegal parking is €150, I gather.
Few more such violations and the car might get confiscated, as presenting danger to the public.

I still remember: "Zonder Hummer is het leven maar een bummer" (without Hummer the life just sucks)
@dimpase @cessie @stux @loke @notjustbikes I remember "zonder hummer ben je niets/ik rij je van je fiets"
@dimpase @cessie @stux @notjustbikes I'm actually surprised that these things are even allowed on the streets in the first place. But maybe they're not being classified as a car.
@dimpase @cessie @stux @loke @notjustbikes proportional to their income, love it!

The license plates are Dutch. The tram is number 10, and it's a "rondrit", a tour of the city.
Based on a Google search, I'm confident that this is Rotterdam.
@stux@mstdn.social@jozeldenrust
ah yes! Pretty sure you're correct indeed
@loke @notjustbikes
@agitatra@berlin.social@loke @stux @notjustbikes Normally they aren't. Unfortunately, there are some loopholes which cost quite a lot, but obviously not enough.
