xD lol, be sure of that.
Kidding, kidding.

Those things are pretty cool though, those infrared things.
I'd be a cop just to fly on a helicopter watching chases on the Autobahn, it's like watching the Indy 500 or something =\

Well, the Autobahn does have areas with speed limits. Also, you better have a car that can handle high speeds.

Yeah, I figured.
You can only go as fast as you want on the places with the infinity symbol on it, right? =\

You are correct. It is only allowed in areas where the amount of traffic is not high. The interesting thing is accidents are rare. But as expected, from those speeds, usually the accidents, that happen, can be pretty dramatic.

I've also heard about the 'ghost riders' apparently suicidal or drunk drivers who speed the opposite way, you know if that's true, Koloth?

Cops don't even care or whatever.
Wow, 155mph? One day, just one day I'll go to Germany and drive there.

I wonder if cops do bother to stop people that are driving 120 over the limit. They do drive Crown Victoria's which has a V8 engine.

There's a highway in the US as well, I don't know if it still allows this, but a certain highway in Montana, I think, allows you to drive without a speed limit.

No, apparently they don't on the Autobahn. They do if you run out of gas though.

I'm not driving to Montana. >_> I wouldn't except Montana because it's a very mountainish area. I would think Texas though because it's very flat. Speed limit is 70.

Yarg. I love the Autobahn. But you have to be over 20 to get the special license to be able to drive on it, because you know, you need to be really skilled at driving if the polizei expect you to be safe during the runs.

Also, it's legal to pass police there, I've seen it on Discovery.
Looks pretty awesome!
