Americans, what is something that Europeans have/do that makes no sense to you?

No disabled access almost everywhere, even in newer buildings.

This is one thing I think America has done right, the ADA is so nice for people with disabilities. I want everyone to be able to experience everything so having the ADA being strong is perfectly okay with me. And I think both sides agree, everyone will get old someday!

Bear in mind, this is relatively recent in the US too. It's culturally connected with both the civil rights movement of the 1950s-1960s, and to the respect that Americans (sometimes) express for war veterans.

This really depends on the place, but yeah some places have pretty awful mobility, like there's a path next to my house with stairs and no ramp on it

Inwinder where in Europe it's like this. Where I've been most places are accessible
