Drive Flat Out On The Autobahn

Ticked off in 2008

Drive Flat Out On The Autobahn

What it is

Parts of Germany's motorways have no general speed limit, only an advisory one of 130 km/h.

How to do it

Hire a capable car and look for stretches without a limit sign. Stay in the right lane except to overtake.

Top tip

Check the car hire rules; some have speed caps.

My experience

If you love speed the German Autobahns are the best place to head for – only 30% have speed limits, the other 70% have unrestricted speed limits. Grab your supercar and embrace the need for speed!
