This sound scary and cool at the same time! Out of curiosity, for everyone else who watched: how fast do you think you'd go if you drove on the autobahn?
I drive 2-7 Times a week on the Autobahn with my 80HP VW Polo VI. Usually around 170/180km/h but if the road goes Downhill i can exceed 200km/h sometimes.
Some things to note: These Lamborghinis on the Autobahn are NOT what we drive like! There are rules about reckless driving and you are also not allowed to overtake on the right hand side.
In Germany it takes approximately half a year and 3000€ to get your driving license. You must know right answers to over 1000 questions to get your license. I think such experienced drivers should have the right to go as fast as they want.
Are you sure? In the video clips you mentioned, I still don't see any European license plates on the cars involved... not even the car in the third lane that's going slowly has a European license plate. Given the license plates, it doesn't seem to be a problem related to the driving habits of Italian or Romanian drivers... even if they aren't known for being the best.
@@freddytv2208 In Germany traffic signs on the Autobahn have a blue background color. In 0:05 and the following seconds you can see green traffic signs on the right handside of the road and in the front somewhat in the distance. Italy does have green a green background color on its freeways but there are other countries that do likewise. What you can say for sure, though, is that this clip was not taken in Germany because the traffic signs would have to be in blue.
Aside to that, the Lambos' license plate do not look like a EU license plate. You would see a blue stripe on the left of the plate with the EU stars on it and one letter indicating the country the car was registered. In the case of Germany, it would be a "D" for "Deutschland".
I have driven quite a lot on the Autobahn and find it relaxing: You don't have to check the speed all the time, you concentrate on the traffic. I normally drive 120-130, I have no need for much more but if I have e.g. a ferry to catch, I might go faster - IF the traffic allows for it. I can vouch for what the video claims: The Germans are generally very good drivers. I also know that very few drivers go faster than, say, 150 km/h
Even if there is no general speed limit on the autobahn, drivers are expected to adapt their speed to the surrounding conditions. This means that if you are travelling too fast in heavy rain, snowfall, heavy traffic, etc., you can be held responsible in the event of an accident or danger. And even in good conditions, there have been court judgements where drivers have been found partially responsible even though another driver simply changed lanes when they were travelling way above the recommended speed of 130km/h. The reason given was that the accident could have been prevented or mitigated if the driver had kept to the recommended speed of 130km/h.
Don't make it look better than it is. Most of the motorway has a maximum speed. Only a few sections have a limited free speed. But given that most of the autobahn system is outdated with tight junctions, it makes it impossible to call the autobahn system safe and sound.
Madness! But there's also a thing with people willing to deliberately go against strict rules. If there are no rules, nothing to flout. It's no longer attractive. The Berlin marathon is the fastest world major marathon, too- a testament to Germany's flat and quality roads. Love this.
Driving on the Autobahn is just like any road with speed limit only faster ... less stress about the current speed limit where your driving ...and if you get a ticket you ask for it... not because you mist some sign telling you for no real reason its only 90 ,100 or 80 ...70 ? ...
@@geopoint_ hell no. I think speed limits are important. You don’t want to be going on 60mph when someone just breezed past you on 400mph. You most likely will be dazed.
The opening sequence doesn't show the German autobahn. Overtaking on the right is illegal in Germany, not to mention that it is highly dangerous. Had the Lamborghinis been caught by German autobahn police, they would have been stopped.
The way you go to the autobahn follows as such, you go high speed to be stupid and kill yourself or you just drive the speed you are most comfortable with and be much safer then any other highway (you know people can go fast so you are just more careful of those) the only ones that die are the stupid ones going higher then 160km/h
I used to regularly do 250, up to 300. Now I turn on cruise control and sit behind semis doing 80-90, listening to audiobooks. Better for the environment and I get places far more relaxed. I'd support a speed limit. Not out of jealousy, but because I think we need to take the environment seriously.

I drove 320 on the Autobahn in a Ferrari 458 as a Passenger.

0:04 is in Italy, and 3:38 is in Romania. Germans do not drive as bad as the drivers in those clips.

The author of the video has not driven on an Autobahn.

the main car factories in germany has an agreement of 250 km/h, like all motorcycles worldwide of 299 km/h .

Most parts are restricted nowadays. Because of maintenance. Baustelle.

This is so scary but in a good way
Schooled again. Interesting pov for the automobile industry.
Indeed! Would you like to drive on this though? Would you feel safe?
