Illegalism is an anarchist philosophy which embraces criminality as a lifestyle. It's the second part of the renowned and enlightened charter: "Be Gay, Do Crime"
This is a place for exchanging tricks & experiences, discussing trends & events, sharing shitposts, and connecting criminality to theory & praxis.
Guidelines
- Be sure to follow the Anarchist Code of Conduct
- Probably try not to incriminate yourself (or others)
- No planning or calls for specific actions
- Make your own debate post if you want to debate the efficacy or ethics of illegalism
- Please consider providing alt texts for images
Rules
- No Lame-Os

If you move the car every day it should be fine anywhere in the EU*, but that in itself can be pretty annoying if, say, you're trying to keep a job.
If not, there's all sorts of regulations about where and when. IIRC there is no distinction made between cars that are made for sleeping in and those that aren't. But there is a distinction between parking it and living in it.
Personal experience: if you choose your place carefully you're good for at least a week. OTOH, that was a while ago.
* I just remembered that touristy places might not be fine, as happened to me in Holland.
Yeah that's why I'm asking, I've got a van. Not a coach-built moho, just a SWB white van.
Have been driving that around Spain, and when driving back to the UK, several other EU countries and I've never had a knock or been questioned by the pigs or even disgruntled locals.
I have seen loads of mess left by other campers, which will be the root of the problem and we all get tarred as a result
So your experience tracks with mine, and my van did have windows and was clearly recognizable as a mobile home ๐
The legal situation differs from country to country but I'm pretty sure in Germany it's not per se illegal to sleep in your car, whether it's a mobile home or not, but there's a load of exceptions to that.
I used to work for a guy every other weekend, during which time I parked 2 nights next to a cemetary because it was the best spot in that village. Never a problem. IIRC the police even came once, I explained the situation, they said OK and left again.
