Country-wide 10
Plates white w/ a noticeable red block near the left (sometimes an EU-style blue strip too)
Serbia: Red block near left → North Macedonia.
All Gen4 = smallcam: low-mounted camera, big circular blur w/ small front protrusion (can be fully transparent)
Serbia: Smallcam only narrows to the region.
Greece: Ѓ/Ќ Cyrillic → North Macedonia; Greek alphabet → Greece.
The Google car never has an antenna - every other European country sometimes does in Gen3
Only Serbia is also antenna-less MOST of the time - but Serbia does have an antenna sometimes. No antenna ≠ proof; an antenna DOES rule out North Macedonia.
Serbia: Antenna visible → never North Macedonia.
Two bollard types: thin rounded + wedge-shaped - both white w/ red or white reflectors on a black surface
Croatia: Cyrillic → North Macedonia; č/ć Latin → Croatia.
Hungary: More white above the rectangle → Hungary.
A-profile guardrails w/ red reflectors
Serbia: A-profile (rounded edges) → North Macedonia.
Direction signs yellow w/ biscriptal text (Latin + Cyrillic town names)
Serbia: Ѓ/Ќ letters → North Macedonia; B-profile guardrails → Serbia.
Slovenia: Cyrillic on the sign → not Slovenia.
Croatia: Cyrillic on the sign → not Croatia.
Montenegro: Biscriptal → NMK/Serbia.
Macedonian Cyrillic: Ѓ and Ќ are unique to Macedonian (Љ Њ Џ shared only w/ Serbian); road signs biscriptal, other signs fully Cyrillic
Ѓ/Ќ = 100% Macedonian. Without those letters, Cyrillic alone could also be Serbian/Bulgarian.
Landscape: relatively dry grasslands, small hills, scattered trees
'Greek lamps' on utility poles
Greece: Alphabet decides.
Serbia: Ѓ/Ќ → North Macedonia.
Yellow-filled warning signs (most of Europe uses white)
Greece: Alphabet decides.
Slovenia: Cyrillic → North Macedonia.
Regional 1
Gen3 coverage sparse: some highways + only Skopje, Bitola, Kumanovo, Prilep, Tetovo, Veles, Ohrid, Strumica have significant city coverage; large apartments/buildings → almost guaranteed Skopje
City 2
City-specific obituary posters on utility poles:
City spotlights: black-yellow striped kerbs → Strumica (at roundabouts → Tetovo); Ohrid = only large city on a lake; long rectangular lamps → only Prilep; two extremely rocky hills → Prilep
Specific spots 1
Gen3 E-65 Kichevo-Arbinovo: a green truck behind the Google car (mostly obsolete)
