    The American mind cannot even comprehend a border between 3 countries being so open.

          Don’t worry I’m sure they’ll come up with tight immigration between states eventually

          The relationship between states in the EU is not very different from the relationship between US States under the Articles of Confederation. It’s not a big a distinction as you think.

      Yeah honestly. I know we (USA), do any number of things In a screwed up way, but it’s also what I’m used to. There’s NO border control anywhere around there? Seems weird to me.

        When I was in Germany in 2022, I traveled freely around Germany, France, Belgium, Switzerland, and Czechia. I only got asked for my Passport in Switzerland, and then at the airports. Otherwise, no, you’d just be driving or on a train and the signs would change to French suddenly.

        I loved it. I wish we fucking would relax our shit in the US. It was hella neat.

    If you slip, fall and hit your head and loose conciousness during that, in a way such that you are lying exactly on the border between two or three nations, to which hospital will you be brought? And how are insurances going to deal with this?

      No worries, any of these three countries will take you without quibbling over who pays what.

      Seems like a non-issue to me. You’ll go to whichever hospital is closest. If you’re resident in one of the countries you’ll be in EU/EEA and get the usual healthcare for residents of whichever country the hospital is in, if you’re non-EU it’ll depend on what travel insurance you have.
