Angry Get a run on the Autobahns in now.....

I have regular contact with guys in Germany, they always said there would be a riot if they tried to impose national max speed limits. I'll see what they know of this ....

This is proposed by someone in the German parliament at least once a year. When it happens, then you can worry about it.
