I drive all over the Northern hemisphere and usually get caught in Europe
by 
bad habits learned elsewhere. Turning on a red light always catches me, as

does the difference in traffic light sequence. I have to watch myself
after 
time in Panama, as after midnight traffic lights are advisory only.

I have DLs for USA, and most of the EU and the test here is a joke.

The seatbelt issue is of no consequence to many cops in Italy, as they 
consider it your funeral, but they will pop you for overtaking without
signaling.
