- A scenic drive from the outskirts of Cologne to the outskirts of Frankfurt on the infamous and most important highway: the Autobahn A3. Click here ▶ to see highlights and guide.
(From Wiki):
Bundesautobahn 3 (Federal Motorway 3) is an autobahn in Germany that links the German border with the Netherlands near Wesel in the northwest to then go to the A2/A516 in Oberhausen an ultimately to the south at the Austrian border near Passau, where it continues in Austria as the A8.
Major cities along its total length of 778 km (483 mi) include Oberhausen, Duisburg, Düsseldorf, Leverkusen, Cologne, Wiesbaden, Frankfurt, Würzburg, Nuremberg and Regensburg. The A3 is a major connection between the Rhine-Ruhr area and southern Germany, resulting in heavy traffic. Consequently, large parts have three lanes (plus a hard shoulder) in each direction, including a 300 km (187.5 mi) section between Oberhausen and Aschaffenburg.

Nice drive ! Only one thing: go right, if there is the possibility.
Why go right if no one is behind you?
@@casmatori The left lanes are only for overtaking, otherwise you have to go in the right lane. Its better for cars on higher speeds when they want to pass you, what is only allowed on the left. Its not that dramatic in this video, but in sections without speed limit, it could be very anoying for other drivers faster than you, when you alway stay in the middle.
@@casmatori Because you get fined if you don’t. In Germany there is a “rechtsfahrgebot” which means you have to drive as much to the right as possible
@@brotuber97 funny that you wrote "its not that dramatic". i also was so "german" while watching. constantly wondering myself if his driving is okay or if he should go the right lane more often. i think es ist gerade noch so zu tolerieren ;-)
@@Pezehgehmer Haha. i also think da drücken wir mal noch ein Auge zu
The three happiest years of my life were spent travelling these roads. Thank you for the happy memories of my beloved Germany.
What I love about driving in Germany or Europe in General is the politeness of the drivers and I mean by that, driving without disturbing others.
Vertigo Also much less left lane hoggers in Europe, here in States/Canada every first idiots are an left lane hoggers
@@fasthighwaydriver59732 yeah this is what I mean, I drive currently in the UAE, and what you said is exactly the same. Very frustrating, especially when you are in a hurry.
Very true
@@fasthighwaydriver59732 In Canada, left lane hoggers aren’t too common but in the states, they are a lot more common
I agree with you
Love how Germany Autobahn is not too packed and mostly straight. This makes top speed definitely possible there without too much of a risk
Well, as little risk as possible without a speed limit. The Autobahn's safety record is generally good, but not compared with the freeway systems of a number of countries, including the UK. This is surprising, because the vast majority of British drivers have never received any training on this type of road, since learners were banned from them until 2018, and post-test lessons have never been mandatory.
Germany has some of the best-maintained roads and vehicles in the world, and the German attitude towards training is exemplary. With everything stacked in their favour, you would expect her drivers to set a standard that is head and shoulders above everyone else, but they just don't. Something is clearly wrong when they cannot match the example of a country of relative amateurs, and since there is only one major difference between the Autobahn and the British motorway, suspicion has to fall on Germany's use of unrestricted sections.
Major studies by international bodies such as the European Union, the European Transport Safety Council, the World Health Organisation and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development have produced statistical analyses of the road safety performance of most of the world's countries, and although they all use different methodologies and datasets, it is significant that they all rate Germany as firmly in the middle of the industrialised nations - nowhere near the top. This is even acknowledged by Deutscher Verkehrsicherheitsrat (the DVR - Germany's own road safety council). _Pace_ my friend, but the notion that Germany is one of the safest places to drive is mere perception, not supported at all by hard evidence.
but few of them would be crashed or died because of this. I think we should more careful in this situations
Germany is such a beautiful country. And most advanced.
@@figure-of-speech just dont speak about ww2

@@ArmemersVietnam
Wait until you need to do paperwork
@@dhtran681 uh... you know about that......
When I went on skiing trips with my school to Austria, we would always drive all the way from England to Austria and one thing I always liked was travelling through Germany (especially at night) along the autobahns and even being able to see the Allianz Arena from the motorway. Even the sound of us going past lorries was always nice to hear and looking at the empty autobahns at night along with stopping at German McDonald’s was always so nice. This video was so refreshing to watch.
I exactly know what you are talking about - I also remember these drives, especially the night drives, the bypassing trucks and lights - sometimes cool music, sometimes just the sound of other cars and the sound of in the rain driving. This is why it relaxes me so much when I watch these videos, I even began to create them of my own to preserve my own favourite roads and moods - take care and stay healthy
The whole European highways/motorways look exactly like this. Stop deceiving yourself my brother 😅
For some reason driving sounds helps me concentrate working at home. Giving me a vibe of being outside but still within my bubble. Thanks for the great content and hope to see more!!
Thank you so much for your kind words Zhihao! Greets!
Germany is a beautiful historical country.
except in ww2
Literally, this is life in the fast lane!
Germany patches their roads sooo smoothly
11:44 wow look at this old smart car, overtaking so smoothly, impressive hehe 😉
Germany's highways are epic 😲
Watching this video brings back fond memory when I lived in Wiesbaden. I traveled on A3 to Montabaur, and A66 to Frankfurt from Wiesbaden many times.
Wow! The views are amazing! I always love to be in this place. Germany is really awesome. I enjoyed the ride!
Thank you so much for the effort on filming this :)
It seems like drivers are so much more knowledgeable with their lane etiquette in Europe rather than the drivers here in America.
Watching and listening to this makes Kraftwerk's 22-minute version of Autobahn sound more incredible.
How beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us! Always happy to experience your videos!
Even if the road is not packed, please follow our traffic rules and stick to the right lane when you are not overtaking anyone. You impede many people by driving in the middle/left lane slowly, even if you don't notice it
My aunt, grandmother, cousin, and I are going to Europe in June for 10 days. I’ve been watching a lot of videos on Europe, and I just can’t wait to see what the Autobahn is all about. My mom went to Germany many many years ago, and she has told me that driving in Europe is very different from driving here at home. Can’t wait for the trip!!
Great scenic drive!
realy nice drive lots of love and respect from germany
Cops 10:45 checking if no one drives too slow
There is 130 at 10:09 and later 100.
may be BAG (Federal agency for freight traffic).
There is speed limit 130 at this stretch.
@@Stefan556 that's a suggestion, not the speed limit
as a police officer, I can tell you we actually do that from time to time. Because some people, especially the elder, can be seen driving like 90kph, and thus blocking the traffic and forcing trucks to overtake. Which can be dangerous.
Wow as someone who drives a lot in SoCal. I smiled at the quality of how people use the lanes here.
Same, This guy drove the equivalent of Los Angeles to San Diego in 50 mins!
Awesome I enjoyed the ride. Thanks!
Nice driving!!!!
Coole Fahrt. Und schnell. hihi.
Danke
nice video quality , nice weather - Good Autobahn Video :)
finally a video where the camera is pointing towards the road :)
nice drive
Fantastic video 👍🏻
Watching this while listening to Kraftwerk? What an experience that was!
Thank you so much! I love these videos...I can thin about it well. :O)
Germany is awesome!!
Who is listen Kraftwerk's autobahn and watch the video together? THATSSS INSANEEEE
Wow da bisde ya aach grade bei Höchst / Main Taunus Zentrum forbei g'fahrn.
Ahhh ja, meine Jugendzeit meldet sich zurück. Echt scheen.
Wohne nun seit 20 Jahren in Washington DC.
Cheers.
Autostrada tedesca...Uno spettacolo...La terza corsia è uno sfrecciare di bolidi senza limiti di velocità..
It was interesting to see an Aldi truck. We have Aldi stores in Florida.
Me: Wants to actually drive on the Autobahn.
*Drives in Euro Truck Simulator 2 instead*
Also me: I guess this will have to suffice. *smiles in pain*
Immer schön in der Mitte fahren, typisch.
Marillion?
Super excellent quality roadways of germany wow.love from mumbai india.
Nice and relaxing drive, thanks for the video.
But one thing, drive on the right please. 24:24 until 25:10 you are not overtaking anyone for almost a minute. If you are not passing a car within 20 seconds you are not overtaking and you have to drive on the right side. If you are not clearing the lane, you are blocking other people. In Germany we call this Mittelspurschleichen.
This is somewhat vaguely specified in the StVO (§7 Abs 3c): On an Autobahn with more than two lanes you may continue on the middle lane if there is "some traffic" on the right lane, hence the usual rule-of-thumb of at least "20 seconds" that you should be able to stay on the right lane. ("... dürfen Kraftfahrzeuge, abweichend von dem Gebot möglichst weit rechts zu fahren, den mittleren Fahrstreifen dort durchgängig befahren, wo - auch nur hin und wieder - rechts davon ein Fahrzeug hält oder fährt")
Awesome driving man i feel like I'm playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 but in real life
Very nice video
wodurch?
I'm always curious about the largest and most important piece of equipment used in these videos - what kind of car are you driving? Many thanks!
Only thing missing : speed indicator
Nice video, I really enjoy the autobahn. What car were you driving?
Womit wurde das gedreht? Perfektes Video!
Thats why the german autobahn is unique because of no speed limit areas
It looks like the starting point is junction 38, Ransbach - Baumbach? That is quite far from Cologne. Still, nice video. It also reminds me why I prefer the A9 to the A7: Less traffic!
Rechtsfahrgebot missachtet
The closer you are the Frankfurt by the A66 Bundesautobahn Kreuz interchange some of the pickles there are going to be American exports driven by a US military soldier as their POV. They have a red light on the rear. Autobahn A3 is parallel to Schnellfahrstrecke Rhein-Main and a wire pole from the railway line is visible at 13:54
The Autobahn does have stretches of highway that have no speed limit but for safety there are always stretches that have electronic speed limits posted when traffic starts to build ,At that point just about everyone uses their flashes to warn the people behind them making it a really good system for being able to get to where your going quicker but also safer !If your driving on the Autobahn only the left lane is for the higher speeds and if your a passenger all you have to do is look overhead and from time to time you will see a helicopter above the highway monitoring traffic so that the electronic sign can be changed in the event of a slowdown !Helicopters relay traffic info to a main controller of the electronic signs and change the speed limit accordingly !When the speed limit does change all lanes have to maintain the slower speed until the next electronic sign tells you no limit ,If the sign says 100 kph which is about 62 mph you must maintain that speed until the signs change to no limit ! So yes folks at times there's no speed limit and at other times there is a speed limit that you must follow !
I saw another video where it was 3 mins fast 3 mins slow, is that how the autobahn works the whole length?
10:47 police is there 😂
Watching to learn the fundamentals of how this actually works in Germany.
It doesn’t seem to be a MAJOR difference between Germany and rural America.
Looks like people still coast in the left lane a little longer than they should, and occasionally pass on the right. Is this normal? I can’t quite imagine someone driving 120 mph with this sort of traffic.
Of course when there is much traffic it looks just like anywhere else. Where I drive daily there is always slow traffic and there is a limit on 50 mp/h. But there are more quiet sections without limit where you can really put your foot down and go over 150 mph. www.autobahnatlas-online.de/Limitkarte.pdf on this map you can see the blue sections which are without any limit. Especially near the netherlands you can go as fast as you want. That is where AutotopNL is filming his videos.
I do watch American highway videos because of the same reasons :-) It just feels good to watch these videos where just the normal things occur and you might get a sense of being there by watching the ambience - I even began to create videos with my own moments, trying to preserve the moods for me and an audience.
Take care and stay healthy.
Driving right lane is law !!!
Staying in the left and even middle lane a bit too long is a little tricky as one may argue moving to the right side relatively early on can force you trying to get back early too.
The general rule is keep a distance of "half the speedometer" towards the car in front of you.
If you drive 140 km/h the distance is supposed to be 70 meter.
How to know what 70 meters are?
On the edge of the right lane you'll see small white posts with a black top with white reflectors.
These posts are about 50 m apart and can help to figure the distance.
At best riding the autobahn is an ongoing dance when changing lanes to the right and to the left in a kind of flow, back and forth, in order to support a good overall flow of traffic without compromising your freedom of choice too much.
You mostly know what other will do. Get your foot off the throttle a bit to allow someone to pass, or accelerate enough to join in the higher speed on the lane on your left side. Watch the mirrors, set your blinkers and act early and accordingly.
Many cars in the video passing on the left lane drive about 100 mph = 163 km/h and quite a few are doing 190 - 200 which is about 120 mph = 196 km/h.
Don't forget Germany is station wagon country, lots of reps, service and business people out there.
A speed of 200 km/h is nothing special or spectacular when riding in a road worthy car and most drivers paying attention.
However as gas prices are very high most people don't do that. I think the general, average speed on the autobahn is only about 142km/h or so.
6:03 / 24:24 / 25:34 - Just for your info: The right lane is not only for trucks. :) Edit: To be fair, you did use it briefly occasionally at about 3 or 4 short sections, and overall nice video. ^^
hi, very nice videos!!! i filmed my tours too with my dashcam!
Every country should have built their autobahn " the German way"...!!
Even on a 3 lane motorway, there is space for 5 cars !!
11:30 Erinnert sich noch jemand an die schreiende Katze am Elzer Berg?
Ja die war Schwarz.
Was that an electric car? I love the motor (or engine, as the case may be) noise in your videos.
Podría ir poniendo la velocidad que lleva en el momento para además ver mas o menos a cuento van los autos que los pasan
Can someone please tell me what this road surface is? Tarmac? I can’t figure it out..
Nice video, but why is the right lane empty ????
Virtually, similar to America as we do have a speed limit but it is merely a suggestion..
On this part of the A3 there is a speed limit! It says 120 and 100 on the signs, at least in the beginning.
Correct some parts are limited.
These highways are nothing in front of Japan’s highway
@@bishalranabhat4563 besides the speed limit.
Hi ! The highway story itself is good, but in vain you wrote that the recording was 4k if the video quality was very poor. Can this be changed in the near future? Thanks Gyula
It is 4k though. Probably the speed makes the images blurry.
If you ever gonna be in a accident on autobahn, you will only experience it once
Which camera did you use and where you mount it?
GoPro Mounted on the roof.
My life is a Highway im gonna drive it all night long
Hi, I plan on making a Lo-Fi video, could I use this video as the background of my video for the full length of this video?
Hi there. Please use the contact info at the description of the channel and send an email with the request :).
👍👍
means while in Australia, our highway have a speed limit of 110kp/h and lots of slow driver....
🌸🇩🇪👍🏻
How fast are you going?
Хорошо бы спидометр на экран вывести :)
saya berharap suatu ketika jalan tol maupun jalanan umum di indonesia keadaan dan kualitasnya seperti ini. tentu saja diimbangi dengan perilaku berkendara pengguna jalannya yang disiplin .... sejauh ini yang saya amati Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang orang bodohnya memenuhi jalanan dengan kendaraan yang mematikan. andai saja kedisiplinannya dibangun seperti di jerman atau minimal kesadaran akan keselamatan jiwa di jalanan tumbuh dengan sendirinya seccara almi .... alngkah indahnya Indonesia di masa depan
I wish we could have the names of the city we were travelling from and the city of our destination.
Que chingonas carreteras tienen estos ALEMANNES¡¡¡ " SON LO MAXIMO "
Ojalá algún día aquí en México, dejen de robar los goviernos nuestro país, y construyamos estas infrastruturas de carreteras , gracias por el video , congratulaciones por todo su trabajo . 9202021
3:28 don't mint me, this is just a personal timestamp.
Title should be 50 minutes of driving in the incorrect lane.
Hi there, why infamous?
How have you been? / Time has passed this year. I hope you take care of the cold weather and health based on Korea. ^O^
3:58 there is the speed limit board 🤔
Nice drive! How fast were you going?
140kmh on average
@Computer User the emphasis lies on "on average" .... its not uncommen to have streches of highways in germany were people go 200kph+
Is there a speed limit for the trucks and busses on the German Autobahn, and if there is can they go over that limit or there's speed governor?
@@aleksandartososki7100 Trucks=80 km/h on the Autobahn.
Most trucks can go 90-95 km/h, and that's what they do. ;-)
Busses 100 km/h
@@TomKruhs Thanks for the info.
Can someone please explain if the lighter grey lane is important? Or is it just new Road?
Emergency stopping lane
It's just a new road. The emergency lane is on the far right.
fun fact: it's illegal to run out of gas on the autobahn
Sounds like your car is struggling
A pickup truck and trailer in Germany??? (0:22)
Schon mal was vom Rechtsfahrgebot in DE gehört?
Rechtsfahrgebot??!! SO macht mn aus drei Spuren nur noch zwei!!
what is your car model?
Peugeot 308
It would be good to know what speeds you drove at.
Between 100 and 160 kmh
NIce ride, but please go to the right lane. You had a lot of moments where you could you to the right lane. Besides you weren't driving that fast to drive constantly in the middle lane.
How come this video seem too familiar with me. Turn out thousand of hours in Est2 is the reason.
hättest ruhig mal zum MTZ abfahren können.....das wäre wohl ein letztes mal für lange zeit gewesen bevor hier alles dicht gemacht worden ist ^^
Go pro
Go Fast
Wir fahren fahren fahren auf der autobahn!
200. km standart
I wish Americans could drive like this
I like how there's not cops everywhere looking to collect more tax dollars.
