Country-wide 15
Plates long yellow + blue strip left (foreign white plates fairly common - small country)
Netherlands: NL is completely flat; Luxembourg = green rolling hills.
United Kingdom: Left-hand traffic → UK.
France: Rare; white signposts + framed yellow signs → Luxembourg.
Bollards black & white, wedge-shaped w/ grey reflectors; some have a distinctive indent in the lower half
Germany: Reflector bolts: 3 → Luxembourg, 2 → Germany.
Belgium: This wedge design → LU/DE, not BE/NL/FR.
Chevrons black w/ yellow arrows (rarely blue-yellow) - none of the neighbours use these
Only Iceland, Norway, Finland, Ireland and Portugal share the colour scheme - all with wildly different landscapes.
Ireland: Green rolling hills + English/Irish → Ireland; central-European hills + French/Luxembourgish → Luxembourg.
Norway: Fjords/mountains → Norway.
Finland: Flat lake-forest landscape → Finland.
Iceland: Treeless volcanic landscape → Iceland.
Portugal: Mediterranean landscape + Portuguese → Portugal.
Poles w/ upside-down trident poletops are the most common type (+ various others)

Portugal: Portuguese language → Portugal.
Almost all coverage = Gen2 or Gen4; Gen3 rare but exists
A Gen2 round in a modern-looking Western European country is a strong Luxembourg lean.
Trilingual: Luxembourgish, French, German - French dominates road signs & ads; German present but less common
Luxembourgish: German-like w/ umlauts + lots of double vowels + occasional é (Ää, Ëë, ee, aa…); town names from Luxembourgish/German roots
é inside otherwise German-looking words (e.g. 'Kéiseker') = Luxembourgish only - German never uses é.
Directional signs yellow, thin black outline, pointed tip, UPPERCASE, fully framed; road numbers: regional 1-2 digits in a red box, local 3 digits in a yellow box; town entry signs also yellow + framed, often bilingual
Metal frames around signs & road infrastructure everywhere
Denmark: Frame corners: square → Luxembourg, rounded → Denmark.
Almost all signs on white signposts
France: Yellow plates + frames → Luxembourg.
Street signs short, usually white (designs vary by town; common: slanted blue corners)
Belgium: Always-white + blue corners → Luxembourg.
Netherlands: Short white → Luxembourg.
Some signposts carry a bulky round reflector w/ blue-white markings
Sweden: Landscape separates easily.
Finland: Landscape separates easily.
Pedestrian signs: 5 vertical stripes; bus-stop sign blue w/ a six-window bus (always the same design)
Belgium: 5 vertical stripes / blue 6-window bus → Luxembourg.
Netherlands: This exact design → Luxembourg.
Landscape = green rolling hills, patchwork of agriculture & forest (yellow plate + hills → LU, flat → NL)
Houses w/ dark slate roofs; plain undecorated walls in white/grey/pastel
Belgium: Especially prominent in Luxembourg; plates decide.
France: Plates + framed signs decide.
Regional 2
Local road numbers (3 digits, yellow box) cluster by first digit: 1xx = southern half, 2xx = capital area, 3xx = northern half
North = hillier & higher than the south; vineyards → southeast (Moselle)
City 1
Luxembourg City downtown partly covered by a Gen3 urban trekker - sometimes his sunglasses & greying hair are visible
