Americans are, for the most part, fucking morons. We invented the infamous warning labels like DO NOT EAT THE TONER CARTRIDGE or DO NOT HOLD THE CHAINSAW BY THE BLADE or REMOVE CHILD BEFORE FOLDING STROLLER or PEANUTS: CONTAINS NUTS

We're also very litigious, as it isn't hard to convince a jury to award damages to a fellow moron.

Italy has the "Do not store your cat under the seat" warning. They do NOT put it on Italian-market scooters and they definitely DO put them on US-market scooters.

Everybody in the world is a moron. Americans just recognize some places where we are morons and try to prevent stupid people (which includes me and you!) from doing some stupid things.

Not everything, Americans do get by with doing other moronic things that other countries do things to prevent. However other countries also do their own moronic things that Americans are much less likely to.
