Oh dear, since I've met many people from Usenet in real life who know that I used to work in the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland and that I still drive to my home in Italy several times a year (through Belgium). You knee-jerk statement just makes you look like a dope.
No, it's based on being a driver who has covered most of Europe west of the Urals.
I suggest that you don't even understand the meaning of the word "depravity". As to the rest of your statement it's empty insult.
Legislation, driver training, (lack of) law enforcement, all vary by national boundarys. Are you trying to claim that Luxembourg, Belgium and France are the same country? Or that Germany, Austria, The Alto Adige, SŸd Tyrol and north eastern Switzerland are the same country? Or that the Swiss drive like the Germans?
No one is doing that, that's your own peculiar take ont he conversation. What we are doing is saying that Belgium drivers are overall significantly worse worse than the European average.
Your opinion is incorrect, HTH.
No, I don't.
As I said, your O is worthless and apparently more born of wannabee political correctness than observation.
