@oblomov@sociale.network yeah germany is strict on that but france is not; i cross on red in front of cops all the time.

Once I was at a red light downtown Koblenz.

Since there was not a single car on the road, I pushed the "Nur für Blinde" button to cross with the green.

An old gentleman started to rebuke me, and I replied (in Italian) "Scusi, non parlo tedesco" 😄

@GustavinoBevilacqua@mastodon.cisti.org @sdm@social.taker.fr that's basically how it went for me with the cops. They checked my ID, and I'm pretty sure they just let me with go with a stern taking to because I was Italian.

@oblomov@sociale.network @GustavinoBevilacqua@mastodon.cisti.org it really depends. i've crossed on red in germany a few times, but you have to be strategic...and obviously not in front of cops.
