and for those who don't know the autobahn isnt one big road that you can go as fast as you can... autobahn in german means highway... it is just their highway, freeway, or interstate what ever you prefer to call it

I drove on the Autobahn. I was living in England in 1997. I bought a british car called an MG Metro. You can see it here. http://www.boompa.com/ethan/british-betty/91/

It was scary... the car could barely do 65mph, and all these high end sports cars were whipping by me. It felt like my car was going to break up and disintegrate. It was a fun little car though, and got me around.

Yeah it did suck.

I've had my share of speed demon motorcycles though to make up for it.

They have lots of good rules in europe and england for driving.

No passing from the slow lane is one of them. Even better, you will get pulled over and ticketed if you stay in the fast lane all the time. And you are liable to have a crazy maniac hit you from behing ( road rage style ) if you try to be a jerk and hog the fast lane ( live everyone does here in the US). I loved that part. You pass and move over. That way everyone can go at the speed they want to.
