Same as Poles that came to my country, behave like primitive people, drives like crazy.

I agree i know a guy in poland who just to show off drove up and down a fotoradar in poland 4 times that its a hoax and got tickets.

and in the usa public intoxication can also deter ones greencard or citizenship.

Travel / Driving in Poland, are there any rules at all? [149]

in Oct. 2010.

Personally I think driver habbits are changing since then in Poland and are becoming more rational.My guess as from 2000 very few licensed drivers were driving and were young and new on the streets with cars but things are changing very rapidly.I drive around 10k miles almost 16k km a year in since 2000 and find polish road drivers getting more sensible.lol then again i personally love overtaking a slow moving car and esp following a car with cb radio with a tall antenna:)

Law / New Immigration Laws in Poland - achieving residency through my wife's citizenship? [7]

If we are living in Poland we wouldn't leave for more than two weeks at a time to visit other countries. So that part is not be a problem.

Infact when I was getting my permanent card they counted all the stamps of me exiting and entering to Poland or any other country.You can visit any country ib the EU and was not considered to be leaving Poland.

Travel / Painted Polish Village Zalipie [6]

For the townsfolk of Zalipie, every day is a celebration since the isolated outpost blossomed into one of Poland's most iconic villages.What was once a bleak and forgotten cluster of smoke-blackened huts, has over the years transformed into a kaleidoscopic feast of colour - and one of southern Poland's best-kept treasures. Each house is decorated with its own vibrant floral motif, painstakingly hand-painted by the town's housewives.

Travel / Where can I buy alcohol in Poland as a 16 yr old? (is it legal?) [14]

buying alcohol in PL is 18

I always wondered who is charged in case a underage is sold alcohol? in states both the seller and the buyer is charged,to top it even if a fake id is shown still the seller is charged as he did sell to underage as well as the buyer.Same is the case with ciggerettes.

Work / Scope for working in Poland after completion of Masters In Environmental Engineering? [6]

environmental engineers are not the best paid on average

I will not agree with that as dealing with EPA in the state of nj is not the young kids I deal with me frame that picture.Then again depends on the state also .Even dealing with private clean up companies I have seen fresh graduates starting over 75k.

Law / In Poland, are debts passed on to next of kin when a parent dies? [13]

but from the date when you find out that you are a heir

How can that be prooved?maybe when you get the letter from the bank that you are responsible that you owe them..that is if you live abroad and after 3/4 years if one ever travels to poland and find out.So technically you have 6 months from then?
