I suppose enough people haven't commented on this... But *man, I love the road culture in urban Netherlands!! Everybody just negotiates the right of way, and everything flows so naturally.* In some situations basic road rules apply, such as main road has priority over side road, and tram has priority over all other traffic. But for the most part, people just cross when there is a gap, and do what's sensible. It looks like chaos to some, but to me it looks like transport in the most human way possible.
Belgrade is different from Dam, but it is a beautiful and interesting city. My stepdaughter attended the United world college in Mostar, so we have visitec first hand several times. Belgrade suffered at the hands of morons with big egos and missiles, but that has not spoiled the city or the people. meanwhile, back in amsterdam... i really liked the Spui and Leidesplein locations. I cycle round Amsterdam all the time, but rarely do I properly watch the trams. thanks for portraying them so well.
TH-cam doesn't allow URL, so go to gvb( dot)nl There is an English version. Then look of tourist information. If you want to ride all day then a day ticket cost 7.50 Euro. The chip in the card allows you to check-in and out of the tram. There are conductors on some of the low floor trans and you can only enter at certain doors. You need the card to open the gates to enter and leave the metro stations. I was there again on Monday April 22/12
For non-Dutchies and non-Danes it might look dangerous... But we (both the Danes and the Dutch) are used to cycle, also when there are tramways . So don't worry about that!
As long as you're paying attention, it's easy enough to not get your wheels caught in the rails. This is what the Dutch do with traffic - they mix together and are super efficient/tight with right of way. In many situations there are invisible traffic rules at play, but most of the time the only rule is that you yield to crossings and trams.
Yes. But severe drawbacks (one or even two of the major companies working on it went bankrupt sometime ago) has put opening of the line (again) into the future. Predictions now say something like summer 2018, but my experience with PT-projects like this is that there is always something else that isn't finished in time and delays are there again. Unfortunately, the new subway will have a huge impact on the PT-network in Amsterdam and (even worse) surrounding communities, who think that the new subway is the best and only alternative to the bus. My city loses almost every single direct bus-service to Amsterdam CS: they think that transferring to the new subway is the way to go, while a whole lot of people (they did some polling ;) ) don't want to transfer. I hope the travellers put their impatience aside and show the transportation company a fair bit of anarchy, by transferring to the buses that do go to CS in great amounts.
One more thing, I was addressing the uploader of the video not you so stay out of it and keep your opinion for yourself please as long as it is offensive..
What is there to film? Virtually no one uses Bicycle and Belgrade public transport is in the top three of the worst in Europe. It's not third but the fift world city in the comparison with anyting in EU.
Wow... do you have anything against that country I wonder.... You say "it's fifth world city compared to anything in the EU" SERIOUSLY?? WHAT ABOUT SOFIA, BUCHAREST, RIGA, NICOSIA, WITH YOUR LOGIC THEY ARE 100TH WORLD CITIES OR SOMETHING.... Man be fair, I'm not a Serb, but I certainly have nothing against them and you clearly are the opposite.

Make a video on trams and bicycles in Belgrade man!
Piękny Amsterdam
アムステルダムはトラムだけでなく自転車利用も盛んだと言うことがよくわかります。環境問題の意識が高いのでしょうか？

Are they ever going to finish the new subway?

I feel fear for the cyclists at the crossroads
