Title: Tempo Limit 200
Post by: LesPalenik on December 19, 2018, 09:38:10 pm

Things in Germany are getting oppressive. Now they are talking about limiting the Autobahn speed to 200 km/h.

That’s something else than 50 km/h in a boring tunnel. Eat that, Elon.

Nice quote btw:

Das fehlende Tempolimit ist für die Deutschen das, was für die US-Amerikaner der Colt am Gürtel ist: Die letzte Bastion der Freiheit - oder ein todbringendes Übel der Nation.

Yes, that describes it pretty well. Here is the English translation:

The lack of speed limit for the Germans is what a colt on the belt is for the Americans: the last bastion of freedom - or a deadly evil of the nation.
