Here in Germany as well, but then it gets really confusing. My favorite example is this intersection: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=K%C3%BChlwetterstra%C3%9Fe,+D...

It has three lights, only two of them positioned at the stop line.

What is the problem here? You expected more at the stop line? Why?

It's confusing to have three lights for a single stop line, especially the light on the left is odd. You don't know which of the traffic lights apply to you and it makes you look for another stop line.
