The Germans think they are so regimented, orderly, and efficient but if they see a queue they ignore it and go straight to the front.

They sometimes get it right in supermarkets, but not willingly.

Unlike most other places, there is no line in front of shops before opening...there are vicious mobs.

But they will certainly tell you if they think you are behaving inappropriately.

There is etiquette for stairs and escalators.
