That's very interesting :). In Europe, the most lanes you see is two :)
meisl123 November 11th, 2011, 03:14 AM ^^ Depends.....In Germany, the most lanes I see are 3, mostly on Autobahns and or Motorways.

No, German signs are WAY different. That seems to be a mixture of various European signs which is not a very good example because there is a siginificant variation of the signs within Europe, too.
friedrichstrasse November 12th, 2011, 12:13 PM Fonts seem similar to Austrian signs, but they're not.

Well since your live in germany, I guess you right. I've been there this summer and they do look different. Those signs Meisl123 gave us must have been from all over europe

Thank you for your demonstration!! Those signs look a little similar to american ones but the do look different (and uique) in a way :)

Ok, so then there not German, but you say they are a mix of european signs?? I guess that makes sence! :)

LT1550 November 13th, 2011, 01:05 AM I think they are Romanian.
The big 200 m-sign with the four symbols on it is definetly German, whereas those signs with the yellow background do not exist in Germany. Those green Autobahn signs are not German, too. I think they are from Switzerland. The blue "'i"-sign looks like France... we also do NOT have the red bounded "do not turn left/right signs", just the "U-turn". It really must be a collection of signs from all over Europe...
eusimcity4 November 13th, 2011, 10:00 PM Most of those signs are german looking......although, some are from other countries. There mostly just broad european ones. Below, these are all from Germany. You can see that they are a bit similar to most european ones.

Sorry, my bad... I think you're right. When I compare the signs with the signs shown in this thread http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=502536 it must be Romania. Didn't expect that they copied so much of 'our' design :lol:
Norsko November 13th, 2011, 10:37 PM ^^All of those are German, I was talking about meisl123 post earlier on this thread, Romanian, no doubt about it...

Scottish bilingual ones. Not that we have any particular reason for them but I like them, and contrary to certain idiots' belief they do not cause accidents.
eusimcity4 November 21st, 2011, 12:33 AM lol :)^^ in some places, they have 3 different languages on one sign and that just makes everything seem confusing :)

I wouldn't say they cause accidents either , but it could be a bit confusing to read in a way. Since this is in scotland, people should be using english ones anyway.....
