German police say a motorist has been clocked driving at more than 199 mph on the Autobahn west of Berlin. He was traveling at more than 124 mph above the speed limit.
The fastest I ever drove on the Autobahn was 200 kph (in a diesel Ford Fokus), which was an absolute blast.
After a bit, I saw headlights flash in my rearview mirror. I pulled into the right lane, and a Mercedes passed me like I was standing still. All the windows were tinted, and it seemed lower than usual.
It may have been a 120kmh stretch of road which, at his speed, just wooshed past him.
Besudes, there’s not that many autobahns left that are without speed restrictions, which is fair I suppose because going 300kmh on a public road is fucking terrifying.
He could have just run the Autobahn to the north of Berlin and go towards the baltic sea the Autobahn there is without limit, literally less than half an hour
Germany is the one country where you legally can drive 320+km/h
Why would you do in in a section with a speed limit?
Feelings of entitlement?

Only about 70% of Germany’s autobahn is w/o restrictions (ignoring from construction), so really it’s almost nothing. /s
That’s a lot of construction
I drove through Germany 2 years ago and there was no lack of Autobahn.
I didn’t go out looking for it at all and found myself on it constantly
But most of it will have a speed limit.
