Several portals in Kosovo have published an article stating that drivers will be fined up to 200 euros if they drive wearing winter jackets.
This article published by the portals "Reporteri.net", "Botasot.info" and "Kosova-sot.info" contains a general title that does not clarify which country it is referring to.
All of this becomes known only after clicking on the article, where it is clarified that the news is about the state of Spain.
Knowing that these portals are registered in Kosovo and the vast majority of their readers are Kosovars, this may misinform them into thinking that this new law is about the Kosovar state.
Also, in the readers' comments on these articles, it is noted that most of them are misinformed by this generalizing title.
Excerpts from the article published on these portals:
If you drive with a winter coat or jacket in Spain, you will face hefty fines of up to 200 euros.
The idea behind this rule is that a winter jacket restricts the driver's ability to drive, meaning it limits their movements behind the wheel.
The same thing, as the HAK media outlet writes, applies even if you wear a scarf or gloves.

Analyze:
The Kosovo portals "Reporteri.net", "Botasot.info" and "Kosova-sot.info" have published an article about a new law in Spain, where drivers will be punished if they drive wearing winter jackets, but they did not clarify in the title which country they are talking about.
Knowing that these portals are registered in Kosovo and the vast majority of their readers are Kosovars, this could misinform them, implying that this rule is about our country.
