Placing of an indirect marker is also done in Denmark, still with a plate on the road. Example at my site: http://www.geocities.com/graenser/rudboel8.html
 
But was is Peter H's map showing the zig zag rather than a middle line?

Yes Peter S,
I fully agree with you on that definition of
the DeNl "neutral roads" - I, too consider
the middle of the road being the actual
boundary line - the markers on either side
just being "Abzielsteine/indirekte Vermarkung".
so I suggest the jurisdiction is divided between
De and Nl ... depending on which side of the road
you are...
Quite useful to know, btw - if we get a ticket for
speeding on the "Heringsbosch" road... what
are the "rates" in Nl and Ge??
CU soon!
Best regards - hilsener - GrĂ¼sse - groeten
Peter H.

I think it's the same as in Europe. The only thing that puzzles me
are the boundary markers along the delu condominial rivers. They make
less sense to me, because the condominium boundary can easily be
marked at the exact location of the boundary. Maybe they are a bit
further up the river bank to protect them from flooding? But in that
case they could have been placed higher up still, because where they
are standing now they are not secure, too.

BTW: Wolfgang mentions exactly the same purpose for these markers as
you do: "indirekte Vermarkung, auch Abzielsteine" (see
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/files/delu/BorderPointemai
l.doc ).

The "neutral roads" along denl are a bit like rivers, too, with the
boundary marker pairs on both side of them. I think in these cases
the boundary follows the middle of the road, but you don't want to
but your markers there, of course.
