I want to add some things for the German side: - There are no rules regarding clothing in your car. You are allowed to drive your car completely naked, as long, as you don't harass anyone. - There are also no rules regarding footwear. However, if you have an accident, the court might rule at least a partial blame due to your footwear. - Filming Police in Germany is licit and even encouraged by lawyers, as long, as you tell the Officer(s), you are filming and you don't hinder them doing their work.

This was a fun shooting as always. 😊 I definitely learned a lot from my filming mates about their countries. I hope you've enjoyed the video and are having a great day. 🥰

I want to add something about the pictures and videos that you can not take in Spain. That is a law but if you see a police officer doing something wrong you have the right to ask for his ID number (all the police in Spain has an special ID Number) and they must give it to you so you can put a complaint in the police station or even in the court in these cases you can have a picture or a video of the "crime". This law was made because sometimes the police is doing a job in secret but unconsciously you can be revealing them. Sorry for my English!

I like the new French girl, but I also miss Marina!

I love hearing everyone's accents

Interesting, about the first one, I'm Briitsh too, and I remember my dad teaching me that it is respectful protocol when cheering a glass that you look at the person opposite in the eyes as a form of etiquette.

Hi I only want to say that there are some points that the Spanish girl didn't say, like you can't drive with sandals but also you can't drive with heels, flip flops or other types of shoes that are open if police saw you, you will have to pay. Another point is that it is true that you should have to pay if you are in the street without t-shirt, you could open it but not take it off. Hi from Spain, Saludos desde España.

In Spain if you see a cop doing something wrong, like something really bad you can film them and go to the police to show them the video. Like I would not recommend taking random pictures of the police, but if you see them doing something bad you can ask them for their ID number and take it to a police station.

Wow, it's really interesting video. So fun and instructive as well.

Summer in Australia you will see many guys without shirts and no shoes, even in shopping malls.

It was a fun video, but I wanted the conversation to keep going. As you can tell from U.S. videos online, shooting a video of the police is your legal right here, just as long as it doesn't interfere with their job or safety. For hand movements, there are many universal, non-verbal gestures, that everyone understands. It would be interesting to make a video of non-verbal gestures in other countries that are unique and different.

nice ❤️ , keep goin' !

I would say the bike lanes are overall aceptable. It heavily depends on the city, for example in Münster its great, but most other places not so much or some places is more bad or nonexistent.

I am really Happy that you come again cause i speak all your languages Spanish Italian French English German

I really like Elena's energy, she would be an awesome friend!

You can definitely take pictures and record police in Spain, the thing you CAN NOT do, is upload said images online without removing their identities. You have to blur their faces and identification badges. Other than that, you are okay (but you'll be warned that you cannot upload said images or recordings if you are taking them while you are interacting with them, and if you get cocky you will make it worse). And the whole thing I said previously I'm pretty sure it only applies when they are executing their duties, if they are randomly patrolling, event, protest, etc you can just record whatever, it doesn't matter (unless you are persistently recording them and only them, then you risk them approaching to inquire wtf are you doing, and since it's an interaction it could be considered that they are executing their duties and thus, you'll not be able to upload or have to blur their identities). To summarize, the statement is fake. You can record them

Very interesting video!

Thanks for the rules l love to see them

Ha! When I drive in sandals I take my right sandal off and drive barefooot 😬

In Spain you can take pictures or videos of the police, that's fake info.

It's make my knowledge more and more

It is perfectly legal to not wear a shirt in Germany. You can even go to supermarkets like that.

Im from a lil country of sveille (spain) and here in summer u can see usually teenagers without tshirts old people its more strange but does too. The police just stop then and says that htey have to put it on. (sry for my eng)

I am not definitely sure but in my country there isa traffic rule for, some people wearing white t-shirt with crosswise seatbelt design and trying to cheat the police like buckle up the seatbelt

I would like to add that the thing about people not being able to take pictures about the police is a half-truth. It's a thing about privacity, for example, some months ago an influencer was drunk, trying to enter a zone that the police was clearing because it was illegal to get concentrated and drink at night due to the pandemic, and when the polices tried to stop him of entering the zone he just insulted them and tried to fight them, so three polices had to reduce him (I don't know if it's said like that xd). Ok, so the thing is that they were filmed (because the id*ot was famous) and there's no problem with that, you just can't publish the video to a social media or at least not without pixelating the faces of the policeman, what the person who recorded the video did, because otherwise the polices wouldn't have privacity while doing their jobs, a thing that, if you are arresting a stup*d influencer, you seriously need though. So, to sum things up: you do can take pictures and videos of them but can't publish them on the internet at least not without pixelating their faces first, you can keep the video if it's for a complaint that you want to show to the justice in privacity. They can take your phone if you just recorded them and start acting like an id*ot saying: oh I will publish this online. That, if I were a police, would be like: dude, everything's fine at home? Sorry for my english tho.

As a tourist in Germany, I was perfectly willing to not get in the bike paths, but I could not always tell where they were, since they often were right next to, or essentially the same thing as, the walking path. There were also times when I simply forgot to note where the bike path was, since in my country bicycles are pretty much not allowed to be on sidewalks, particularly at a high rate of speed (they use the streets). So I respect the laws and customs in Germany, but I sometimes found myself in trouble anyway. Apologies to German cyclists, after the fact!

I’m from American and the police thing really shocked me! I never knew that, but I feel that is something that is good to know. Here we can film when we get pulled over or whatever the circumstance for the civilians protection.

I liked it

7:30 when i'm in other countries and want to take photos of the police i politely ask if i'm allowed to. because of the terror attacks in europe i can understand the authorities that there are bans

I’m not really sure about this but I think you can record the police in Spain but you can’t post it online because of privacy (so if you do you have to cover their faces). But you definitely can record if you see the police doing something bad or whatever (again not completely sure)

Denmark is a bike country, there are more bikes then people in the capital of Copenhagen 🇩🇰

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

-Of course, you can take pics and videos of the police in Spain as long as they are on duty. It is your right actually. IDK where she has got that info from -You are not allowed to drive shirtless just because in case of an accident you may get burns on the seat belt area. As we all are covered by public health care it would be an unnecessary cost for the system. It just could have been prevented easily. (That's the point) -You can take your shirt off if you are working out. In summer, most people go shirtless when they go jogging around the park or play any other sport. It would be weird if you were shirtless in downtown, financial area, industrial area.. (People normally don't work out in those places)

The tricky thing for foreigners not used to bike lanes, is at crossroads. I had this a lot in the Netherlands. It happens more often when you are with a group and you don't really pay attention. So, you are a crossroad. The light is red for you, so you have to wait. You are in conversation with your friends and, without even paying attention, you walk up to the border of the road, completely forgetting there is a bike lane between the walkway and the road. And sure enough, your group stand still there, in the middle of the bike lane, like disrespectful egocentric foreigners.

In the US...the police could take a phone but would require a warrant from a judge to unlock the phone and look at things. They wouldn't be allowed to alter the photos or blur faces because once a warrant is issued the phone and everything on it is evidence and any modification would be tampering with evidence...which would violate the rules of evidence and would not be allowed in court. If that were the only piece of evidence of a crime...the state no longer has a case since they can no longer use the phone as evidence.

Police should stop people with sandals worldwide. It's a serious crime against humanity, especially with socks.

The finger pointing to the head actually comes from the german saying "he has a bird in his head", which basically means 'he is nuts'

Takeing of the shirt and trousers is not prohibited in germany. You only have to make sure not to offend others.

Can you make a video on Indian accent Vs American accent Vs British assent??

In the u.s. it is your right to video cops. Even though the police have body cameras, the body cameras are controlled by the individual wearing them, so to keep cops held accountable, especially in the age of technology and social media, Americans video cops always. And I think some of these people in this video need to learn about their country's civil rights/laws.

The first swear word on your channel. 😂🤣

6:20 That's not true xD You just think they come from the pool or something, it's so common to see shirtless people in Spain during summer. It's just I think she's from Barcelona, right? I think It's illegal there xD

Wow... actually here in Brazil, a man who would not feel comfortable to take his shirt off is pretty weird to be honest. So it's common, it's really normal for a man to go topless on the streets if it's cold, which most of the times is.

In my experience german and dutch cyclists are more serious than the brits also crazier

I'm honestly surprised that there are a lot of restrictions on filming the police. I thought it would be the other way around. Here in the US, it's a right to be able to film the police (although sometimes police aren't aware of it). I know this channel is primarily for people learning English, but it's educational for English speakers too!

As far as I know, here in Belgium, taking pictures is never forbidden. Publishing them in the media, can be. If you publish a photo or a video of somebody, you cannot publish his name without his consent. You cannot publish a mugshot of him asking to identify the guy. You can however bring the picture to the police for complain, or proof. Having nobodies in the background of the picture of your kids at the beach is OK. If you want to name them on your facebook page, strictly speaking, you need their consent. Taking a picture of the crowd opposite to you at the stadium is OK, because nobody can be identified. If you have some crazy car on your dash-cam, you have to blur the plate of you want to publish it on youtube. But you can bring it as proof to the police if you need. Hidden cameras need to get the consent of their 'victims'. Filming police brutality is OK, publishing them on social media is ok only if individual officers cannot be identified. Bringing the video to the tribunal and identifying the perpetrators is OK, because it is not 'public'.

and then there is greece that there is no bike lane

Creo que no pertenezco a la misma España que ella. Exceptuando lo de las fotos a los polis

Hiiii

Recently in Germany it’s not „never walk on the bike path“, but „never ride your bike on the walkway“, as some bicycle warriors with their fancy e-bikes seem to forget there’s other traffic besides them.

Not all people don't do this

"relations" hehehehe

Anyone should be able to film and take pictures of police. The fact that they can't shows they normally do bad things and don't want to get caught.

Man I wonder why German and French customs are similar not like they have invaded each other for thousands of years

It always confuses me. In my entire life I never thought about looking others in the eye while "prosting" with my drink. And never has anybody said something about it. So it must be something, not everybody does. Don't worry, nothing will happen except you meet people who grew up with this kind of tradition, they will just make a short joke about it.

Please bring back Christina and emily request

This shows how authoritarian France and Spain has now become when it comes to recording police violence or police committing crimes.

I've got to say as someone who has an immense problem with holding eye contact, I get annoyed everytime someone reminds me to look them in the eyes while "prosting". I'm sorry, I'm not being rude, I just can't do it xD

i went to tiergarten in berlin during summer and bumped into a field of naked man, some completely naked, sunbathing... i believe there's a big naked culture there lmao i'm not from europe btw so i was quite shocked

I have noticed that foreigners slam the door and do not think about it. Everyone will see that behavior as something rude.

Could you guys get a polyglot to sit in with you. Any topic would be fine, though. Thanks.

Where's Lauren and Marina, I like them 😊. I would like to learn your language, but you are excited to learn about Korea, what's matter guys?just kidding!

The guy from UK never said anything about taking pictures of police why? even though the german girl have said we have the same in germany like the UK have they cut it off?

I think they forgot about "Never use swastika symbol in Germany "

In my country, it is okay for someone to point the middle finger, but the last finger can end in a fight.😅😅

What? I'm pretty sure going shirtless in the street is legal (and fine) in Spain. It may vary from city to city, tho, but it's definitely not a "Spain thing".

i would have preferred if you had a woman from the UK. the guy was cute and delightful. However, a guy will have a different perspective then a girl so it is like comparing apples and oranges.

Guapísimas chicas

Don't really understand why it's always a fine when you're taking off your shirt in public. I mean what kind of bad thing can happen or what's a cause?

The law that prevented people to film the police in france had such an enormous backlash and demonstrations against it it didn't pass (you really have to be such a crap to try to pass such a unjust law just after the killing of George Floyd in the u.s, and all the wounded victims by the police that happened at that time in france, certainly those politicians, big business, and those criminal in uniform were trying to protect themselfs) but other laws that where connected to this one are still on the gov plans or had pass, such as adding a definition of terrorism wish was totally abstract so they could put peoples in jail or in forced residence (you can't leave home and have to report to the police station, when there is a demonstration or for a certain period of time (wich can be unlimited)) just for just having differents political point of view, raising their voices, or participating in demonstrations wich is a absolut right for citizens. It was used a lot against green militants and activists, because the agro-industry in france is really powerful and has a lot of connections at the top.

I didnt knew they had taking pictures and videos of police are illegal. In our country it was almost like this since the biggest spark problem is a police shotted a innocent grandma and her son the police shot them with no care with his daughter, because of the proven video he is in life sentence but sadly he wont have death penalty since that is banned because of religious belief reasons. If people cant be allowed to record them then use own webcam for your police to see if theyre doing the right thing since theres many serious crimes a police didnt get guilty since theres no proof and the biggest example is america's polices

On a une très belle langue🇨🇵

I am from Spain and you can definitively be naked in public. Not just shirtless, but fully naked. In some cities there are laws against that, such as in Barcelona, but there is no national law regarding that. In fact, quite the opposite, according to the constitution.

Spanish are quite conservative really, Catholic nation and all that, the police are very heavy handed.

No Italian in the house so no fun at all

is this girl even from spain

Seven years of bad Sex,do ya really wanna risk???

You need a Russian

Bring Marina and the english girl back !

😂 Claudia, by God, the police aren't like Jesus 😉 But it's true that it's illegal to photograph and film the police in their normal work. If they do something bad, you record or photograph them, because in the police there can also be bad people, they are still human beings. 🙄 Maybe, the law not to record them, it also has to do with the security of their privacy or even the history of terrorism in Spain in which many police officers were targets of terrorists. The t-shirt is also true. There are even public places such as museums, supermarkets and like that where there is a sign on the door indicating that it's forbidden to enter without a t-shirt. In some it even indicates that it's forbidden to enter barefoot. The latter especially happens in the most touristic cities on the coast. The sandals thing is true and I think it also makes sense from what Claudia has commented on the danger of sandals with pedals in risky situations. Really I love this videos 💖 Thank you very much for making these videos, eliminating prejudices and joining us in what we have in common. 💖

why is there a black frenchman among the white europeans?

I don't understand why you're promoting the idea of thinking in the cultural concept of nations. Most modern European nation states don't have a culture but are diverse within and you'd rather find cultural similarities across the border in border regions. The franco-german border region poses much more of a cultural entity than looking at Germany and France separately. So the Alsace-Lorraine region is way more similar to Baden Wurttemberg, Rhineland Palatine or Saarland than to southern France. And the bordering parts of Germany mentioned are more similar to Alsace-Lorraine than to the north of Germany. And Claudia, the Catalan, should know best. Her "people" is split between France and Spain. So Catalans, who are French on the paper, speak her native tongue. This whole concept is a joke.

Sucks how the US isn’t as afraid of the police. The people here have no respect anymore.
