In Germany a fixed wheel does not count as a brake, and passionate fixie drivers will have a rear brake installed but never use it.

The signs on the rim of a brake that has been used is frowned upon by o̶b̶s̶e̶s̶s̶e̶d̶ passionate fixie drivers.

In the UK a bike is required to have 2 brakes, and a fixed wheel counts a single brake, i.e. you can't ride a fixie with no extra brake but you can with a single brake
