I drove on the autobahn for a week a few years back and I could not believe HOW WELL everyone drives. Everyone seems to know their place. We flew up and down it at all kinds of speeds and it was such a great experience. What we see in this video must be relatively rare, at least in comparison with how people drive here in Québec. People have no sense of lane flow here. Everyone picks a lane and drives at whatever speed they want. Left lane blockers absolutely everywhere.
Agreed. German drivers, on the autobahn especially, really put American drivers to shame. People here in the US are some of the worst highway drivers I've ever come across. I know Germans often trash talk their own drivers, but trust me my German friends, in comparison to the morons here in the US your drivers are absolutely amazing.
I'm French and I drove through France, Italy, Austria and Germany recently. The difference between Italy and Germany was astonishing. In Italy, German cars would drive way above speed limits, pass dangerously on the right, flash their lights constantly. In Germany, same cars, but they behaved soooo much better. Even on the autobahn very few would drive above limits. The differences between two countries are unbelievable.
Yes, without good suspension characteristics, the car could have death wobbled out of that brake or pitched forward too far to use the rear brakes effectively. Perfect balance from the German Machine.
Even if he checked at that speed it's easily attributable to the blind spot. If you checked your mirrors 5 seconds ago and there were no cars for as far as you can see you might assume it's safe to move over without checking. Which is why this kind of driving is illegal in other countries. It's not logically sound to drive a hundred miles per hour faster than someone and think it's safe
@@ChrisG1392 on German autobahn you have to be aware that people can flyby you like u standing even if you're going 200km/h, it's no limit. If you don't care about your own life, at least think about the other lives you might take
@@ChrisG1392 if you follow the rules indeed its save. thats why they teach you to check the mirrors severals times before you change lanes and not just "5 seconds earlier". What you CAN do 5 or better more seconds before changing lanes is to set your indicator and not only when you're already in the process of going to the left lane. these speeds above 200kmh are usually on the german autobahn and im sure there are less major accidents over here than in other countrys where this is illegal.
When I first drove on the autobahn&I wanted to overtake someone, I saw someone in my mirror but they where so far away that I put my indicator on and when I checked my mirror again,his speed was so fast that he was getting close faster than I anticipated,so I cancelled my signal,but the other guy was on his brakes and horn (he wasn't that close but better to brake early than late)and I can imagine that it might have been scary to see a indicator on when the speed difference was 100+km/h , so getting used to the speed difference takes time ,but it is doable
That‘s why you learn in german driving school, that you should check your mirrors every few seconds. So you always know, what ist going on behind you. If you do so, the chance of misjudging the speed of the oncoming traffic is nearly zero. Of course not all people are doing it - as seen in the video - but nowadays they are chatting on their phone…
If you look in your mirror once, it's like looking at a picture, your only gonna see one thing, but look a few more times or for a few seconds, and you'll get a better idea.
@@Tony-lj5lrHahahahaha no the heck they aren't sport, unless you live in the rich suburbs, and even then, nothing but closed roads and development areas.
That’s normal in Germany. U want to drive a bit faster and there’s always this one person switching lanes without looking back. Mostly they overtake with just 5-10 km/h more while u driving 50-100 faster :)
@@gyula6516 somehow understandable, of course not everywhere. But try to drive from the Polish border „Frankfurt Oder“ to Berlin with no limit. U would notice some of those situations.
And then they write rants on twitter and messages to their politcians to limit everything to 130 or even better 100 km/h. Pretty sure this will be done the next years.
It's usually cars with foreign plates who do that. It happened to me a couple of times, either french, belgian or dutch plates. They don't seem to give a damn and just switch lanes to overtake a truck or something without looking or realizing there are cars driving 200 km/h+ and they're just barely doing 90. Germans don't usually do this, at least in my experience driving there.
@Black Man Sounds like the UK, too many idiot drivers here who don't check their mirrors and then either look shocked at you (What have I done wrong?) or just stare straight ahead and don't want to make eye contact with you.
No he did not. 1.5sec from 142 to 85 would be 1.72g of braking AVERAGE. No tires in the world could handle that many g's of deceleration, not on a heavy mercedes like that. It was more like 142 - 90mph in 2 seconds or so, hard to estimate on video.
See to bottom right corner From 233 kmPh ( 143.779 ) miles to 138 kmPh (85.749 ) in Less than 2 seconds ( for your satisfaction i did calculation in calculator also there is delay in showing speed ,if you watch slowest speed it is around 136 kmPh which is shown after car hits the brake , but that definitely slowest before he hit accelerator... Also assuming things that no other one in world would can handle brake that fast is stupid.
@@xninja2369 It's pretty easy to see that the speed numbers at the bottom right do not match the video so those are probably average speed over a couple of seconds instead.
This has happened to me before and I have also been the person to cause this. Actually, both happened on the same day. All I can say is that it’s actually very difficult to gauge someones speed from just looking at the side mirrors. Everyone must be extremely cautious when changing lanes on highways, especially when switching into the faster lanes.
I never go over 140 kmh on a two-lane road. Especially when there are a lot of trucks in the slow lane, somebody's gonna make a mistake sooner or later.
Definitely in Germany. Used to live there for a big part of my life and the people drove really well. So well that it had left a lasting impression on me. Once I got back to the states, it was living hell on the roads. While in Germany, getting cut off and all that doesn’t happen as often as it does here in the states. I get cut off more in a day in the states than I ever did while I lived in Germany.
"living hell on the roads" lol bad drivers peeve the hell out of me but you should look up some clips of the 3rd world if they are around. Really makes you appreciate traffic cops and rule of law lmfao
@@user-qu6ij5sl1v Theres a video floating out there where a van was parked too close to a rail road track and it got progressively ripped apart by the passing rail cars.

@@GamesHochZehn Yeah I really want to drive on the Autobahn once in my life but the highest speed I've ever driven is 120 km/h here in Japan. It must be so thrilling!
@@anubisu1024 Ye its pretty fun, my fastest i did was 190km/h. i personally like it but this freedom comes also with its risks. Not everyone has the right feeling for this responsibility. And like you saw things can get pretty dangerous in very short time.
@@anubisu1024 it definetley can be fun but you really need to know how you drive on the Autobahn. Please do not just come to Germany, rent a car and instantly go up to 200kph. Make sure you get a feeling for traffic flows here on the Autobahn before doing it. Otherwise it can get dangerous. Some people come here go up to maybe 160/180 kph and because it feels so fast for them they dont check the mirrors anymore before changing lanes, which can get dangerous for faster cars and also they fail to recognize cars in front or to the right of them. So just please know how traffic works in Germany and know how to drive at high speeds before going past 180kph.
@@somebuddy8702 Yeah I'm scared by people like them also in Japan, even at much lower speed (like 100 km/h, it's so fast for me though). And you maybe know that the side we drive on is different between Japan and Germany (or most of the world); I'm used to drive on the left side. I said I want to drive on the Autobahn but at the same time I believe I can never. Be relieved that an Asian man won't bring disaster to your land :)
As an American, 140 mph (231 Kmh) is literally insane in terms of legal speed, it’s about 60 over what the highest speed limit in the country is. Going from 140 to 80 in a couple of second is nothing short of incredible for that guy.
Yea I’m not really sure why the guy is honking that speed is incredibly unsafe to begin with and the person in the red car probably quickly glanced at the mirror and didn’t realize that the mf was going fucking 140 mph.
If on German autobahn: check your mirror long. Like for at least 1-2 seconds so you can really see how fast someone is coming from behind. Otherwise you will end up in these situations daily
@@Curonian it's not stupid at all of you have a aren't a dumb piece of shit. Even with speedlimit there can always be one idiot going much faster than the should which will make you end up in this exact same situation. Always check your mirrors conscientious or double check. Also very important to not knock over a motorcyclist
@@Eth-vz7qp If it's forbidden, there will be a lot less drivers that do that. With that, less likely for something to happen . Speed difference between cars is just ridiculous. Your mirror checking, like I said earlier won't do shit for you after a bend, it's gonna be too close and for a car traveling at huge speed it will take a second to appear. I'm not dumb or shit , you should check your mirror and see the real dumb fuck here. But I bet it's gonna fly right over your head again, talking to disrespectful shits like you is pointless.
The red car might have looked, but if they are not used to these roads, may have seen the Merc as a spec in the distance and thought "plenty of time". Easy mistake to make if you haven't driven on the autobahn and demonstrates how dangerous a huge difference in speed is.
It's a stupid law. Those were extremely tiny lanes to go beyond 200. Those are literally liftoff speeds for planes and I don't give a shit if it's technically legal there.
@@AnoNymous-dh2sv The law also says, if you go beyond 130kmh, its considered endangerment and if you collide with someone you will at least carry partial blame. The law is good as it is.
@@richardbolsac4756 It's a law t hat only makes sense if you trust all people driving. Most countries would never allow it, because they know "partial blame" is a free ticket to go 250KM/h in two tiny lanes like above which is not safe at all even if you are "god" at driving.
@@AnoNymous-dh2sv it says "atleast" not only. Its not a free pass because you will get fucked if the accident was avoidable at 130kmh. You could even get charged if there are injuries involved.
My impression has been that the speed difference between lanes tends to be a lot higher in Europe, even in France with speed limits. And the culture seems a bit different too: you don’t just go in the left lane to pass, you go there to drive fast. Meaning you are expected to accelerate when passing if ever there is someone behind.
True, you better accelerate when going in the left lane if you don‘t wanna get road raged. Especially in Germany where there‘s no speed limit in most parts of the autobahn!
@@mikka3487 I lived in Germany for 2 years and very rarely did I go on the sections of the autobahn that have no limit. It's only in parts where you're going from one city to another and you are 5-10 miles+ from civilization
@@Dthaps I assumed it is the autobahn. The advised speed limit is 130kph - you can drive faster if you wish, but if you are unable to see potential danger, then you will encounter problems just as this careless fool did. If he hit that vehicle, it would be his fault in the eyes of the law. Don't worry, experience takes time, you'll get there.
this is why you dont do 200+ km/h when you are passing a car on the autobahn when the care you are passing is going 50km/h less then you My rule of thumb is like 20-30km/h over the guy im passing,it gives me enough safe braking speed to cover,but it depends on how well you know your car and how good the brakes/tires are
While some people argue that the person overtaking suddenly is at fault in reality you cant be driving so fast even in germany if you are in such a situation. You have to expect people to pull out because they often cant tell how fast someone is approaching with people speeding so much. So at least if there is traffic that might overtake be ready and maybe take your food off the gas for a couple of seconds.
If someone is wondering, according to the coordinates this incident happened on the german Autobahn A7 at Bad Brückenau (Bavaria) between Schweinfurt and Fulda
I hate the A7. Unrestricted but only two lanes. Its hell to drive any faster the 150kmh because of trucks constantly overtaking or people like in the video.
The Autobahn is the car people's equivalent to the so called American Dream. It's not that special or great, believe me. It's just your average european highway. There's nothing magical about it 😂
@@k.r.99 It’s not about magic. It’s about being able to drive 200+ km/h on a public road LEGALLY. Many people from Poland for example go there to test their powerful fast cars. Here we don’t have any decent places to do so. Racing tracks are rare and shitty. The maximum speed you can travel with on Polish „autobahn” is 140 km/h. That’s what it is all about with autobahn.
@@jewblin5305 I know that, mate, but the it can lead to reckless driving of autobahn tourists (especially those who haven't much experience with car physics or the machine they're driving) and end up in trouble and hurt themselves, others or in the best case only their own vehicle. I know that many people, journalists or companies test their machines on the Autobahn but i'm only talking about those, who think it is something like a funny trip to a theme park or something like that. Most rational and responsible people in Germany don't drive over 200 kph very often, since it's boring and can be dangerous as seen in the video. My point is: visiting Germany just for some adrenaline fun on the highways, is like visiting the outback in Australia for fun, it might be safer than let's say driving in Italy or India but it's not SUPER safe. You got to have experience with driving and with the vehicle you're in, because otherwise anything could happen.
@@davieee1168 You don’t know shit. If you drive 200 km/h in Poland on a public road that means you exceed highest possible speed limit by 60 km/h. With current regulations you lose your license at the very time police catch you. No one risks their license like that.
This is normal in Germany. Driving at great speed comes with a lot of responcibily and knowledge of what other cars might do. But in some cases you can pay attention to the other cars as much as you want, if there is someone not paying attention at all (like this idiot in red here), there's nothing you can do except for slamming the brakes and hoping for the best. The biggest problem is, that people driving slow all the time don't understand these great speeds as well and can't judge how much faster a car is behind them. And in some cases it's just sheer lack of attention...
This is an important lesson for everyone in the comments saying: “Did he not check his mirror?”. He did, the problem is that at that speed you will be on top of the car that precedes you in a millisecond. Sure enough you will be on top of him a lot earlier then he expected. So the thing is: if you want to speed, you NEED to anticipate the way other motorists think. Otherwise DON’T speed, you’re risking your life and the life of others around you.
No it isn't, this is the autobahn, where you should always 100% be on the lookout for someone flying past you because it's perfectly legal. There was at least 5 seconds between the time he was visible and the time he got cut off
Even on autobahn if you crash at high speed its your fault. Its responsible speed. That means going above 130 Km/h is legal but in this case the Mercedes would be liable for the crash.
Pov car is in clear and direct sight for 5+ seconds before red car changed lanes. If he checked more than once at any point in those 5 seconds he would have known to not pass. Regardless of that, he's in the right lane and ONE look at a car in the passing lane is enough to decide to stay put, especially when you can clearly see he's not "passing" any cars. He only decides to signal as he's turning the wheel, which is just as good as not signaling. This is Germany, namely the autobahn, and if you can't understand or agree with any of that, then you shouldn't have a German license. This should be the case everywhere in the world, but unfortunately nobody outside of Germany understands proper road and lane etiquette.
Two cars driving close to each other is an overtake waiting to happen. Attempting to race past that situation without lifting at 230kph on a 2 lane highway doesn't demonstrate great 'defensive' driving skills. Late lane change obviously, but should be noted that rearview mirrors are really hard to judge distance and speed from. Mistakes can happen, but as the driver going this fast and overtaking you need to anticipate and account for these things imo, if only because german law will hold you liable.
EXACTLY RIGHT... If you're driving at 230 kph and see this ahead, SLOW DOWN. You can complain about the other driver being an idiot (they clearly are), but that won't matter jack shit, when you're dead. And at 230 kph, YOU WILL DIE. DEFENSIVE DRIVING. You have to anticipate the stupidity of other drivers. Everybody should know that some ponce in a Mercedes is going to try to suddenly pass a slow 4 door, in the dumbest way possible. Knowing this is part of being a good driver.
100% agreed, as a Motorcycle rider going over 100mph, you have to anticipate that people can't judge your insane speed. Seeing two cars that close to each other in a 2 lane highway is an immediate red flag to me, someone's gonna overtake, although with a bike I'm lucky I can just squeeze by hoping they don't swerve in fear seeing a vehicle just suddenly show up beside them.
I can say that the most scared I have been on a duel carriageway in UK was when I was overtaking (within the upper speed limit) when out of the corner of my eye watched in horror as a motor cyclist double taking me (at at least 100 mph) He skidded on the gravel near the barriers but kept on going as he passed me and was gone into the distance. I must say choice words were said. Going at that sort of speeds nonone can react quick enough to get out of the way.
@@BlAzInLoNdOnToWn 😟 checked mirror always b4 overtaking. The guy was going about 100mph and was there in a second. He wasnt in sight when I started moving out.
All those people saying the red car may of checked and the white care just appeared, He had a good AT LEAST 9 seconds of time to see the car approaching. The white car wasnt hitting the speed of sound ffs. Even if the white car was travelling at double the speed the red car would still have several seconds to check before moving.
1. Its hard to judge how fast the car is travelling at from behind. 2. There was quite a large gap when the red car change the lane. 3. The red car was not going slowly. It seems like it was doing at least 160+ km/h 4. The red car probably did checked the mirror but misjudged the speed of the car behind. Conclusion, don’t go too fast when there are other cars around. If you want to pass, you should observe the behaviour of the car you want to pass first to ensure that you can pass it safely.
Seeing such a large gap in your side mirror you would think it will be safe to change lanes but mans was going 230 kph and probably cleared a 100m gap from the point of the red car checking their side mirror in like 2 seconds
Cars on the right line are doing about 140kph (85mph). Left line you'll usually see around 160kph-180kph (100mph). It's rare cars driving over 200kph (125mph) so one is taking a risk at those speeds
Impressive response. One thing to keep in mind with these dashcams is that speed is measured through GPS, which relies on calculating speed by the distance traveled within multiple pings from a Satellite to the receiver. There is always latency and thus lag in the speed readout. It will never be accurate every millisecond...
@@RandomNumber141 Observe the nose end of the car dipping down. That's when the braking actually starts. The braking only lasted for about 2.5 seconds.
@Jupp Schlabutt “electronic helpers” aren’t going to be very useful when you’re dragging your lifeless legs over shattered glass with broken hands. It doesn’t matter how good your cars are, survival rates at that speed are quite slim. You could, on the other hand, just drive safely- especially when taking in to account weather conditions. Also, I pay for the police with taxes. Doesn’t mean I’m going to create a terrorist threat to utilise their services…
The Autobahn is usually pretty smooth tho. Unless if your car is noisy as hell at speed ( mine ) or your car isn't designed for 140+ ( also mine ), you tend to forget how fast you're actually going. When I first came to Germany I was surprised my cousin was driving 170 while all I feel is smooth tarmac.
@@geennaam1201 I recently took my motorbike up to 230kmh. It was honestly one of the most intense experiences of my life, everything looked like a blur going past. Than i re-watched my go-pro footage and it looks like i'm just doing regular highway speeds lol, maybe a little over. Cameras rarely do speed justice.
The red car had 5 seconds to judge the situation. That's more than enough to compare their speeds, but they definitely weren't paying attention. If you drive on these roads where high speeds are legal you HAVE to know this. No excuse for bad driving like this. But the camera car started braking a little too late.
Hello Dave0oo, is it possible to contact you regarding this video (i.e. via email)? We would be interested to discuss a license to use this video if this is generally possible to discuss? :) Cheers, Felix
This happens all day in my country - just a lot slower (left lane 130km/h, sometimes higher, right lane 91km/h). People in the right lane cruise behind semitrucks (hard limit 90km/h and forbidden overtaking) until they catch one and then start overtaking WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING IN THE STUPID MIRROR. Still, a very dangerous practice. I´ve also seen some Germans doing exactly that as well.
How do people go by their life, sitting at 90 behind semis on highways? I can't even stand them on normal roads outside town even though I would usually only drive 10-15 faster
@@DamageDirk they just cruise in right lane, until they come behind semi, only to jump into left lane without looking into their darn left mirror. These guys just deserve a biker´s revenge - destruction of mirrors, since they don´t use them anyway.
In Germany, trucks are limited to 80 in the highway, so in smaller two-lane highways (which very often also have no speed limit for cars) what you described happens fairly often and may become pretty dangerous real quick.
@@julianwelz ofc it´s dangerous, it´s physics. But people are often ignorant of the laws of nature. And in the aftermath of a crash, they´re unable to determine their own fault in it.
I am glad I have good breaks I have been through some instances like this as well and recently I got super lucky as someone decided they wanted to be at a right angle to me to get to the lane they want when we were going 50 mph. I couldn’t see them turn because they were literally next to me and they started turning at about my front door and before I knew it they were right in front of me I SLAMMED on my breaks and felt a scratch the person drove off and I did the same once I saw they ditched. I couldn’t tell if we actually touched or if it was my tires scrapping the ground from the hard stop. Luckily it was a slight tap with minimum paint exchange. But it was very close to being a terrible crash as we were driving >50 mph
The man in the red car wasn't able to see the other one coming due to the high speed. That speed was totally incompatible with a two lane highway. 🤷♂️
@@Wonder184 Still impressive. Braking 230 -> 130 km/h means brakes have to absorb 3.6 times more energy than 100 -> 0 km/h (ignoring air resistance, but the point is clear)
Imo driving a 100 km/h faster than everyone else is dangerous for exactly that reason. If you overtake a hundred people the chance that one of them fails to judge your speed correctly is massive. Sure, it's the red guys fault, at least legally. But good luck with that kind of logic, when you then can watch the grass grow from the opposite side.
Nobody talks that he was driving at 200 kph + and that this is so dangerous for the ones that drive at normal speed. And the driver of the red Mercedes simply couldn’t see him before overtaking .
This happened to me. Getting on the highway (US) a semi was in the right lane and it was either accelerate or slam the brakes to yield. Should have braked. Went to 90mph to get in front of him, got over, was fast approaching the semi in front of me, checked me mirror, saw a car a ways back and got into the left lane, looked in my mirror and that car was inches from my bumper. That would most likely had been fatal, glad he was paying attention and had good brakes. Lesson learned.
Trucks are overtaking with 89, while others drive 250. It's not a coincidence drivers in Germany automatically get parts of the fault in a crash if they drive more than 130, which is the recommended speed. I guess this video was taken on Sunday, over the week the right lane is completely occupied by trucks
@@simonm1447 "drivers in Germany automatically get parts of the fault in a crash if they drive more than 130, which is the recommended speed."

But honestly, You don't see how stupid is your claim?
@@damianboj3809 I'm a German and I still live in Germany - however it seems you never had a crash on the Autobahn, it's very true you get very often at least a partial fault since if you drive faster than 130 since the crash would have been avoidable with a lower speed difference. Just Google for "Autobahn Teilschuld über 130" and you will get the answer. Speeding in a curve when the car in front of you can't see you in a reasonable time coming from behind is stupid enough, since the driver provoked an accident and this is such a case where he would get judged to a partial fault
Once apon a time in Australia we had open speed limits in the northern territory... However none of the street cars then were able to get even close to 300kmh lol
I put a stopwatch between the sound of the brake pulling to constant velocity (via eyeball method). A more accurate reading could be taken through video analysis. I got a time between 3.5 - 4.1 seconds. That is 0.68 - 0.81Gs. That's probably doable with stock brakes. What's *really* impressive is the fact he actually kept his car on the road.
230 km/h? This is insane. Why did he had to drive this fast? Fuel consumption,tyres...brakes probably have to be changed...most of all...you could have been dead after crash. That is so...no good words for that.
Great control and glad you're safe but this is an excellent example of why you should slow down when passing cars like this. Never assume people see you.
Driving high speed on the Autobahn can be satisfying, especially at good weather conditions and high quality road surfaces like in this video. But there is always a safety issue, witch rises exponentially the faster you go, no matter how “good” you drive. By overtaking with such high speeds, your risk to cause a fatal accident is tremendous, even if other road users don’t make a driving mistake, like in this case. Imagine that someone’s tire bursts, forcing the car to the left lane right before you’re about to pass. Or what’s with a stalled car at the left lane, due to a breakdown, behind a left curve? Even at “normal” speeds this could cause hazardous situations, not to imagine, what would be at high speeds…
Yet by far the most deadly accidents happen on the Landstraße and in the city where 50 is the speed limit, and Autobahn is the least dangerous road in Germany. For me personally the risk of falling asleep on a 6 hour drive with 130 kmh is much higher than when I drive +250 kmh, since I am fully awake and alert at all times, even over many hours when driving fast. When driving 200 or even 300 your eyes are glued to the road, your muslces are tender, youre looking 400m ahead, barely even blinking and so on. When driving 130 I switch songs on my phone, check whatsapp, take a look the landside and talk with passengers, or my eyes fall shut when Im alone in the car. Honestly, I feel like driving slow is way more dangerous for some people who are just mentally unchallenged (unterfordert) with 100 kmh. I get distracted when I drive slow, honestly.
This is going to be unpopular but maybe driving at 240kmh on a highway, be it an autobahn, is pushing it in terms of risk/reward and safety for yourself and others.
people drive that fast all the time and are perfectly safe. it’s the other driver who simply didn’t check their mirrors. if you’re not gonna check when you switch lanes, don’t drive on a road like that
I recently turned 21 and have had my license for 3 years now. Such a situation happens more often on the Autobahn than some people think. Despite my short driving experience, this situation or a similar one has happened to me 3 or 4 times.
@@Muckito Right, but I do not see how doing 230 kmh on a 2 lane motorway necessarily violates that law. Doing 230 kmh as well as making some other mistake like not reading the closing gaps like the cammer did here could be unlawful, but not doing 230 kmh itself.
This is testament to the German driving school system. In the US and other countries where you're mostly taught to drive by your parents the standard emergency stop reaction is to slam full brakes and swerve the wheel full in any direction. Consequently losing control and spinning wildly until you are stopped by a barrier or flip into the ditch by the side of the road. Well done to the driver of this car for keeping it under control.
I drove the autobahn when I picked up my E92 M3 in Munich. Some guy in a little red fart car pulled out in front of me to get around a semi truck when I was doing about 130mph. I had the same experience slamming on my brakes. I just missed him as well. FEWF!
I've dropped the anchor out at 250kph in similar circumstances..It gets your blood pumping indeed but to be fair, at such such speeds really you should expect it to happen when you see that red car closing up ahead on the car in front of it. You cannot really expect them seeing you come flying in at Warp 5.. Because in reality they might not see the speed difference in rear mirror.. Look once, No car in sight Look second time, now see car 900 meter behind indicate, that car is now 500 behind move to the left, and now that car is braking hard to avoid collission. Not everybody scans their mirror twice in half a second while indicating. Especially older people just don't have that Situational Awareness to spot a rocket ship coming up from behind. It's a 2 lane unlimited HW, you can get away with a bit more on a 3 lane, but a 2 lane.. this level of traffic : YOU should know better . YOU are supposed to moderate your speed to the conditions of the road.. YOU are supposed to be the one that can slow down at all times If there was a collission, in this case, YOU would get the blame and eat the insurance.
He is like 100 meter away, that's why he overtaking, you are the one who need behave and not always accelerating even tho there is no speed limit cause it was dangerous
There is a reason why the recommended speed limit is 130kph. Going significantly above that is incredibly dangerous, and you will get some of the blame if there is an accident. Both drivers are equally to blame here.
You have probably never been on autobahn, you can see a car coming from very far away, and if u just take more then one second u will realize that someone is comimg flying at you :)
I've ridden my motorbike at stupid speeds on the autobahn and people did pull out on me. I didn't blame them, I was doing twice the speed of most of the other traffic.

It's easy to complain about the red car, but the only reason there was even any danger is because of the cammer's speed. Passing cars at a much higher speed is dangerous. It puts all the responsibilty for a safe passing in the hands of the vehicle being passed, even though the car passing has a much greater overview of the situation.
This is what I dislike from the Autobahn. People drive with such incredible speed that someome who wants to switch lanes has no sense of how fast the cars behind you are approaching.
If you have roads where somebody can be passing another vehicle with a 100 km/h speed differential, then this is going to happen from time to time. There will be times when drivers make a mistake, and the amount of kinetic energy which will be dissipated in destruction at that speed will be astonishing.

I drove on the autobahn for a week a few years back and I could not believe HOW WELL everyone drives. Everyone seems to know their place. We flew up and down it at all kinds of speeds and it was such a great experience. What we see in this video must be relatively rare, at least in comparison with how people drive here in Québec. People have no sense of lane flow here. Everyone picks a lane and drives at whatever speed they want. Left lane blockers absolutely everywhere.
Agreed. German drivers, on the autobahn especially, really put American drivers to shame. People here in the US are some of the worst highway drivers I've ever come across. I know Germans often trash talk their own drivers, but trust me my German friends, in comparison to the morons here in the US your drivers are absolutely amazing.
I'm French and I drove through France, Italy, Austria and Germany recently. The difference between Italy and Germany was astonishing. In Italy, German cars would drive way above speed limits, pass dangerously on the right, flash their lights constantly. In Germany, same cars, but they behaved soooo much better. Even on the autobahn very few would drive above limits. The differences between two countries are unbelievable.

Even if he checked at that speed it's easily attributable to the blind spot.

@@ChrisG1392 if you follow the rules indeed its save. thats why they teach you to check the mirrors severals times before you change lanes and not just "5 seconds earlier". What you CAN do 5 or better more seconds before changing lanes is to set your indicator and not only when you're already in the process of going to the left lane. these speeds above 200kmh are usually on the german autobahn and im sure there are less major accidents over here than in other countrys where this is illegal.

Its Germany. They dont have TUV (inspection) for bad condition cars
When I first drove on the autobahn&I wanted to overtake someone, I saw someone in my mirror but they where so far away that I put my indicator on and when I checked my mirror again,his speed was so fast that he was getting close faster than I anticipated,so I cancelled my signal,but the other guy was on his brakes and horn (he wasn't that close but better to brake early than late)and I can imagine that it might have been scary to see a indicator on when the speed difference was 100+km/h , so getting used to the speed difference takes time ,but it is doable
Look twice or more, believe me or believe in Jesus 😂
That‘s why you learn in german driving school, that you should check your mirrors every few seconds. So you always know, what ist going on behind you. If you do so, the chance of misjudging the speed of the oncoming traffic is nearly zero. Of course not all people are doing it - as seen in the video - but nowadays they are chatting on their phone…
IMO you should still keep the signal on, as you actually plan to change lane, jut giving way to others...
If you look in your mirror once, it's like looking at a picture, your only gonna see one thing, but look a few more times or for a few seconds, and you'll get a better idea.

It's usually cars with foreign plates who do that. It happened to me a couple of times, either french, belgian or dutch plates.

While some people argue that the person overtaking suddenly is at fault in reality you cant be driving so fast even in germany if you are in such a situation. You have to expect people to pull out because they often cant tell how fast someone is approaching with people speeding so much. So at least if there is traffic that might overtake be ready and maybe take your food off the gas for a couple of seconds.

This is normal in Germany. Driving at great speed comes with a lot of responcibily and knowledge of what other cars might do. But in some cases you can pay attention to the other cars as much as you want, if there is someone not paying attention at all (like this idiot in red here), there's nothing you can do except for slamming the brakes and hoping for the best.
The biggest problem is, that people driving slow all the time don't understand these great speeds as well and can't judge how much faster a car is behind them. And in some cases it's just sheer lack of attention...

hes not speeding but i agree. its the autobahn
No it isn't, this is the autobahn, where you should always 100% be on the lookout for someone flying past you because it's perfectly legal. There was at least 5 seconds between the time he was visible and the time he got cut off
You sound dumb. The red car had plenty of time to get over but then decided to wait until the driver in the video was on their ass.
Even on autobahn if you crash at high speed its your fault. Its responsible speed. That means going above 130 Km/h is legal but in this case the Mercedes would be liable for the crash.
Pov car is in clear and direct sight for 5+ seconds before red car changed lanes. If he checked more than once at any point in those 5 seconds he would have known to not pass. Regardless of that, he's in the right lane and ONE look at a car in the passing lane is enough to decide to stay put, especially when you can clearly see he's not "passing" any cars. He only decides to signal as he's turning the wheel, which is just as good as not signaling. This is Germany, namely the autobahn, and if you can't understand or agree with any of that, then you shouldn't have a German license. This should be the case everywhere in the world, but unfortunately nobody outside of Germany understands proper road and lane etiquette.
Two cars driving close to each other is an overtake waiting to happen. Attempting to race past that situation without lifting at 230kph on a 2 lane highway doesn't demonstrate great 'defensive' driving skills. Late lane change obviously, but should be noted that rearview mirrors are really hard to judge distance and speed from. Mistakes can happen, but as the driver going this fast and overtaking you need to anticipate and account for these things imo, if only because german law will hold you liable.
You’re 100% right, even at lower speeds i see this stuff all the time, it’s best to just lift because 9 times out of 10 they’ll go for the overtake.

Seeing two cars that close to each other in a 2 lane highway is an immediate red flag to me, someone's gonna overtake, although with a bike I'm lucky I can just squeeze by hoping they don't swerve in fear seeing a vehicle just suddenly show up beside them.
I can say that the most scared I have been on a duel carriageway in UK was when I was overtaking (within the upper speed limit) when out of the corner of my eye watched in horror as a motor cyclist double taking me (at at least 100 mph) He skidded on the gravel near the barriers but kept on going as he passed me and was gone into the distance. I must say choice words were said. Going at that sort of speeds nonone can react quick enough to get out of the way.
So you pulled out on a motorcyclist because you didn't check your mirror and forced them into the central reservation?
@@BlAzInLoNdOnToWn 😟 checked mirror always b4 overtaking. The guy was going about 100mph and was there in a second. He wasnt in sight when I started moving out.
@@BlAzInLoNdOnToWn Let me guess, you are another one of those entitled motorcyclist?
@@timetraveler_0 Well I'm a motorcyclist who hates almost being killed by morons in cars like you, if that's what you mean?
@@BlAzInLoNdOnToWnMotorcyclists speed and then blame others for not reacting fast enough to their rule breaking
All those people saying the red car may of checked and the white care just appeared, He had a good AT LEAST 9 seconds of time to see the car approaching. The white car wasnt hitting the speed of sound ffs. Even if the white car was travelling at double the speed the red car would still have several seconds to check before moving.
Those are comments from people who never use their mirrors. They try to defend their kind.
Not everyone is a skilled driver...
1. Its hard to judge how fast the car is travelling at from behind.
2. There was quite a large gap when the red car change the lane.
3. The red car was not going slowly. It seems like it was doing at least 160+ km/h
4. The red car probably did checked the mirror but misjudged the speed of the car behind.
Conclusion, don’t go too fast when there are other cars around.
If you want to pass, you should observe the behaviour of the car you want to pass first to ensure that you can pass it safely.
Seeing such a large gap in your side mirror you would think it will be safe to change lanes but mans was going 230 kph and probably cleared a 100m gap from the point of the red car checking their side mirror in like 2 seconds
@@mr.spacemango yeah it's a real burden to check your mirrors multiple times before changing lanes
/s
Cars on the right line are doing about 140kph (85mph). Left line you'll usually see around 160kph-180kph (100mph). It's rare cars driving over 200kph (125mph) so one is taking a risk at those speeds

One thing to keep in mind with these dashcams is that speed is measured through GPS, which relies on calculating speed by the distance traveled within multiple pings from a Satellite to the receiver. There is always latency and thus lag in the speed readout. It will never be accurate every millisecond...

especialy on a good solid car
@@Risk0s I always take that in account, but in the general view its like "Meh I'm doing only 160..."
The Autobahn is usually pretty smooth tho. Unless if your car is noisy as hell at speed ( mine ) or your car isn't designed for 140+ ( also mine ), you tend to forget how fast you're actually going. When I first came to Germany I was surprised my cousin was driving 170 while all I feel is smooth tarmac.
@@geennaam1201 I recently took my motorbike up to 230kmh. It was honestly one of the most intense experiences of my life, everything looked like a blur going past. Than i re-watched my go-pro footage and it looks like i'm just doing regular highway speeds lol, maybe a little over. Cameras rarely do speed justice.
So nobody is gonna mention the fact that he’s driving over 200kph and the red car had little time to react?
The red car had 5 seconds to judge the situation. That's more than enough to compare their speeds, but they definitely weren't paying attention. If you drive on these roads where high speeds are legal you HAVE to know this. No excuse for bad driving like this. But the camera car started braking a little too late.

if youre going that fast, there is no way others can clearly see you and measure your speed. anyone who drives like this, clearly has a deathwish
skill issue + spiritually a slave
in germany 230 is slow what are you talking about
This happens all day in my country - just a lot slower (left lane 130km/h, sometimes higher, right lane 91km/h). People in the right lane cruise behind semitrucks (hard limit 90km/h and forbidden overtaking) until they catch one and then start overtaking WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING IN THE STUPID MIRROR.
Still, a very dangerous practice. I´ve also seen some Germans doing exactly that as well.
How do people go by their life, sitting at 90 behind semis on highways? I can't even stand them on normal roads outside town even though I would usually only drive 10-15 faster
@@DamageDirk they just cruise in right lane, until they come behind semi, only to jump into left lane without looking into their darn left mirror. These guys just deserve a biker´s revenge - destruction of mirrors, since they don´t use them anyway.
In Germany, trucks are limited to 80 in the highway, so in smaller two-lane highways (which very often also have no speed limit for cars) what you described happens fairly often and may become pretty dangerous real quick.
@@julianwelz ofc it´s dangerous, it´s physics. But people are often ignorant of the laws of nature. And in the aftermath of a crash, they´re unable to determine their own fault in it.
Sometimes i close my eyes on a straight street while speeding. Amazing kick! xD ... 2-3 seconds are my record.
I am glad I have good breaks I have been through some instances like this as well and recently I got super lucky as someone decided they wanted to be at a right angle to me to get to the lane they want when we were going 50 mph. I couldn’t see them turn because they were literally next to me and they started turning at about my front door and before I knew it they were right in front of me I SLAMMED on my breaks and felt a scratch the person drove off and I did the same once I saw they ditched. I couldn’t tell if we actually touched or if it was my tires scrapping the ground from the hard stop. Luckily it was a slight tap with minimum paint exchange. But it was very close to being a terrible crash as we were driving >50 mph
The man in the red car wasn't able to see the other one coming due to the high speed. That speed was totally incompatible with a two lane highway. 🤷♂️

@@eatanotherzio6811 what do you mean? You think this wore them out a lot? Not at all, brakes are made to be used...
@@Wonder184 Still impressive. Braking 230 -> 130 km/h means brakes have to absorb 3.6 times more energy than 100 -> 0 km/h (ignoring air resistance, but the point is clear)
Imo driving a 100 km/h faster than everyone else is dangerous for exactly that reason. If you overtake a hundred people the chance that one of them fails to judge your speed correctly is massive. Sure, it's the red guys fault, at least legally. But good luck with that kind of logic, when you then can watch the grass grow from the opposite side.
Amazing stability under intense braking - the folks who work on this car know what they're doing.

@@Renovarqing wat für opel?
Nobody talks that he was driving at 200 kph + and that this is so dangerous for the ones that drive at normal speed. And the driver of the red Mercedes simply couldn’t see him before overtaking .
isnt that a normal speed?
yes it is but when i was on autobahn then the normal speed cars were going was like 140km+
This happened to me. Getting on the highway (US) a semi was in the right lane and it was either accelerate or slam the brakes to yield. Should have braked. Went to 90mph to get in front of him, got over, was fast approaching the semi in front of me, checked me mirror, saw a car a ways back and got into the left lane, looked in my mirror and that car was inches from my bumper. That would most likely had been fatal, glad he was paying attention and had good brakes. Lesson learned.
Autobahn sounds safe, but not when some drivers are approaching 300kmh and some are still doing 100 🤷
Trucks are overtaking with 89, while others drive 250. It's not a coincidence drivers in Germany automatically get parts of the fault in a crash if they drive more than 130, which is the recommended speed.
I guess this video was taken on Sunday, over the week the right lane is completely occupied by trucks

@@damianboj3809 have you driven on the autobahn? This 130km partial liability turns readily with a quick Google.
@@damianboj3809 I'm a German and I still live in Germany - however it seems you never had a crash on the Autobahn, it's very true you get very often at least a partial fault since if you drive faster than 130 since the crash would have been avoidable with a lower speed difference.
Just Google for "Autobahn Teilschuld über 130" and you will get the answer.
Speeding in a curve when the car in front of you can't see you in a reasonable time coming from behind is stupid enough, since the driver provoked an accident and this is such a case where he would get judged to a partial fault
Once apon a time in Australia we had open speed limits in the northern territory... However none of the street cars then were able to get even close to 300kmh lol

I put a stopwatch between the sound of the brake pulling to constant velocity (via eyeball method). A more accurate reading could be taken through video analysis.
I got a time between 3.5 - 4.1 seconds. That is 0.68 - 0.81Gs.
That's probably doable with stock brakes. What's *really* impressive is the fact he actually kept his car on the road.
He was driving on a pretty straight line, with decent tires and decent suspension it's harder to lose the car than to keep it on the road

Excellent reaction, great brakes.
Le mec ose klaxonner alors qu'il roule à 230 km/h. Ou va le monde ?
Driving high speed on the Autobahn can be satisfying, especially at good weather conditions and high quality road surfaces like in this video.
But there is always a safety issue, witch rises exponentially the faster you go, no matter how “good” you drive.
By overtaking with such high speeds, your risk to cause a fatal accident is tremendous, even if other road users don’t make a driving mistake, like in this case.
Imagine that someone’s tire bursts, forcing the car to the left lane right before you’re about to pass.
Or what’s with a stalled car at the left lane, due to a breakdown, behind a left curve?
Even at “normal” speeds this could cause hazardous situations, not to imagine, what would be at high speeds…
Those are all pretty rare circumstances since maintenance is required and the road is kept clean
whatever, u tjink too m,uch
Yet by far the most deadly accidents happen on the Landstraße and in the city where 50 is the speed limit, and Autobahn is the least dangerous road in Germany. For me personally the risk of falling asleep on a 6 hour drive with 130 kmh is much higher than when I drive +250 kmh, since I am fully awake and alert at all times, even over many hours when driving fast. When driving 200 or even 300 your eyes are glued to the road, your muslces are tender, youre looking 400m ahead, barely even blinking and so on. When driving 130 I switch songs on my phone, check whatsapp, take a look the landside and talk with passengers, or my eyes fall shut when Im alone in the car. Honestly, I feel like driving slow is way more dangerous for some people who are just mentally unchallenged (unterfordert) with 100 kmh. I get distracted when I drive slow, honestly.
You're joking right?
@@Kylirr No Im dead serious and I know a couple people who feel the same
This is going to be unpopular but maybe driving at 240kmh on a highway, be it an autobahn, is pushing it in terms of risk/reward and safety for yourself and others.

This is testament to the German driving school system. In the US and other countries where you're mostly taught to drive by your parents the standard emergency stop reaction is to slam full brakes and swerve the wheel full in any direction. Consequently losing control and spinning wildly until you are stopped by a barrier or flip into the ditch by the side of the road. Well done to the driver of this car for keeping it under control.
I drove the autobahn when I picked up my E92 M3 in Munich. Some guy in a little red fart car pulled out in front of me to get around a semi truck when I was doing about 130mph. I had the same experience slamming on my brakes. I just missed him as well. FEWF!
Buenos frenos y muy buenos reflejos por parte del conductor 👍

Reeee 🔥
I've dropped the anchor out at 250kph in similar circumstances..It gets your blood pumping indeed but to be fair, at such such speeds really you should expect it to happen when you see that red car closing up ahead on the car in front of it.
You cannot really expect them seeing you come flying in at Warp 5.. Because in reality they might not see the speed difference in rear mirror..
Look once, No car in sight
Look second time, now see car 900 meter behind
indicate, that car is now 500 behind
move to the left, and now that car is braking hard to avoid collission.
Not everybody scans their mirror twice in half a second while indicating. Especially older people just don't have that Situational Awareness to spot a rocket ship coming up from behind.
It's a 2 lane unlimited HW, you can get away with a bit more on a 3 lane, but a 2 lane.. this level of traffic : YOU should know better . YOU are supposed to moderate your speed to the conditions of the road.. YOU are supposed to be the one that can slow down at all times
If there was a collission, in this case, YOU would get the blame and eat the insurance.
I dont get why people only look at the mirrors once? A cars speed must be observed in the mirror while he is overtaking you
And I don't get why people go 240 kph in a public road.

It's easy to complain about the red car, but the only reason there was even any danger is because of the cammer's speed. Passing cars at a much higher speed is dangerous. It puts all the responsibilty for a safe passing in the hands of the vehicle being passed, even though the car passing has a much greater overview of the situation.
No it's not dangerous when people actually know how to drive and check their fuckin mirrors
This is what I dislike from the Autobahn. People drive with such incredible speed that someome who wants to switch lanes has no sense of how fast the cars behind you are approaching.
If you have roads where somebody can be passing another vehicle with a 100 km/h speed differential, then this is going to happen from time to time. There will be times when drivers make a mistake, and the amount of kinetic energy which will be dissipated in destruction at that speed will be astonishing.
People need to get used to it. It's just like ride in a highway for the first time, but with way more precaution on what are you doing.
