my day on the autobahn

[wicked68]

I was in germany last week and headed to the airport on sunday morning early from cologne to frankfurt.

Was in an audi a3 turbo diesel 2.0 l

put the cruise control on 210kmh ( as fast as the car would go) and got there in 1.25 hours - 180 km

It was so nice that people actually got out of the fast lane to let you go by - and only used it to pass.

It made me realize what a55hats most american drivers are.

oh yeah - there was not mass carnage all over the freeways there from going fast like they say happens. I did not see one wreck and I acutally got passed 2 times by big mercedes.

i had the pleasure of ridintg on it back in 92..was a passenger in a older bmw but was so cool going 115 mph for 3 hours straight..made for great travel time..got passed by a few porsche's and seen 0 wrecks ..awesome piece of road

Yes they know how to do it properly. It takes around a year to get a license. People are trained how to drive. If they don't pull out of the fast lane they can have their license suspended. I was on it many years ago. It is designed very well also (curves, ramps, etc..).

lol - ok rub it in

tell me - what is the deal with all the drivers taking cell phone pics of each other when they are mad at each other?

I saw this several times coming back from some sightseeing - like if somone was passingon the right or would not get out of the fast lane.

out comes the cell phone and they are taking pics - pretty funny

They have websites where you can upload a photo of a left-lane bandit.

that seems childish at best

Let's people have fun ripping on the people in the photos....and if your friends or family see you on one of the sites they can take the pi55 with you as well.
