Where Minnesota becomes tiresome with its relentless regulations, Turkey is a country with inconsistent regulation. For example, in malls and parking lots there are usually security guards. In the mall entrance you have to pass through a metal detector, put your bag through a scanner, and sometimes be buzzed by the hand held scanner. The attendant in the parking garage today had an under carriage mirror and 3D goggles. The thing is, the seem to be scanning more out of curiosity rather than safety. The machines are always beeping, and no one is stopped.
It's kind of funny until you walk on sunny unmarked pavement and learn that you have little depth perception and that yellow paint smeared religiously as a national warning sign for a curb or curve or potential hazard has possibly prevented more accidents than I had ever imagined.
