Few years ago Romania has introduced a pollution tax for used vehicles imported into the country. The situation is extremely worrying as old cars are imported mainly from Germany, and pollution levels are beyond critical. The EU has chosen to ignore the environmental impact and the context of Romania's economy (people will naturally want to buy whatever they can get their hands on, due to economic hardship). There are so many "Made in Germany" high polluters in the country that I personally can not and will not buy German made cars again. This is an example of where the EU has applied regulation, without proper consideration for the context of a country, and in favor, as usual, of Germany.
