US vehicles are built to meet American standards, which include specific lighting requirements such as amber turn signals and sealed-beam headlights, as well as odometers that measure in miles. In contrast, Danish vehicles adhere to European Union regulations, featuring E-marked lighting with rear fog lights and metric odometers in kilometers.
