On 17 July 2026, traffic police in Borken (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany) held an educational campaign for owners of motorhomes and caravans. Of the 54 vehicles weighed (22 motorhomes and 32 cars with caravans), 12 had slight overloads. Drivers were given advice without fines, with officers explaining how excess weight affects handling and braking distance. Another such event is planned for mid-summer holidays.

Bozcaada municipality begins demolition of illegal tiny houses

The municipality of Bozcaada, Turkey, has started demolishing illegally placed tiny houses on agricultural land. Owners have been sent notices, with fines and legal action to follow if structures are not removed within 30 days. The dispute dates back to 2021 when a court overturned a ban on their entry, classifying them as licensed vehicles.
