^^^ One of the more informative posts right here. 100% agree!

Don't anyone think driving on the German Autobahn is a free for all. There are restrictions on speed and well posted ahead of time. Fatalities are up in Germany right now 10% over the past year and POLICE are very much out in force in unmarked cars. All actions are video taped by the unmarked patrol cars. They will tape your aggressive driving then pull you over and charge you. Charges can include the fee for the drivers licence suspension (if you are not a resident of Germany). You will have to follow the police to the next rest area and there you will find a ATM machine and expect to hand over anywhere from 300 to 1,000 + Euros you better have it in your account or the next stop will be jail.

So anyone doing a EURO Delivery in the near future be on guard, drive within posed speed limits or avoid the Autobahn

I have arranged to translate the above 2 inks from German to English so some of you that are not able to read German can do so in English.

As I said before (in a privies post I hope everyone recovers fine).

BTW I was born in Germany, I drive in Germany every 2 to 3 years when I visit Family members. So believe me I know what gives
