A beautiful motorway, you are in the mountains for 180 km between Salzburg and Villach, the motorway reaching also a relatively high altitude for european standards, over 1300m at Tauer Tunnel. Drove it a couple of times, always enjoyed it. Thanks for the video, greetings from a roadtripper from Germany!
3:52 typischer Mittelspurschleicher: Nur weil du HONK deinen Tempomat auf 140 eingestellt hast, heißt das noch lange nicht, dass du 5km in der Mitte rumverkümmern darfst.
Nice video. Especially the views just before entering the Taurn Tunnel. Maybe put a warning about the quick flickering when you speed up the passage through the tunnel? It looks like early Christmas. Only joking :) But what's all the fuss with those ugly grey concrete (?) sound barriers. It looks like a bad version of the 'Iron Curtain' although the Berlin wall looked nicer .... Did Austria get some millions EU subsidy money to completely ruin the views on this autobahn. Seriously? Some stretches have walls on both sides AND on the central median for kilometers on end? You would expect this for large densely build-up urban areas. But I can only imagine a couple of houses behind each long wall? It looks terrible.
Ah sorry, I wasn't aware of the annoying sound, I see what you mean. Yes no clue what's up with those barriers, then again they also lower the speed limit in these areas to keep the air 'clean'. I guess it's about reducing the impact of the Autobahn on idyllic surroundings but yea, it sadly goes at the cost of the views from the Autobahn itself.

Great drive! Why the blur on license plates? Privacy law reasons?
Yes I'm not sure but I read some things online about it and just wanted to make sure. The privacy laws in Austria and Germany are very strict.
