Clues to look for
Signs are in German and towns have yellow entrance boards. Look for white bollards with a black stripe, red-roofed villages, tidy forests and very well-kept roads.
Driving side
Cars in Germany drive on the right. So do Liechtenstein and Monaco, which are also in Western Europe. Most of the world drives on the right, so this alone won't narrow it down much: check the signs next.
