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.

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!!
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
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.
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 :)
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!!
mostly because other drivers will hate you and youll get fined if you dont exercise proper lane etiquette (keeping in the left lane for no reason when the right lane is clear)
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")
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.
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

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. ^^
But if there is no speed limit, why are so many speed limits clearly posted? 100 km/hr signs along the centre rails, then later, numerous overhead signs increasing it to 120. example 13:39 (full screen required to see....)
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!
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

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 !

The three happiest years of my life were spent travelling these roads. Thank you for the happy memories of my beloved Germany.

This is just a tiny fraction of it. Never ever visit the Ruhrpott area or else your world view point will drastically change.

I will never understand why driving fast is such a huge deal? America is gigantic. There must be roads where you can put them pedal to the metal too.
Literally, this is life in the fast lane!
How beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us! Always happy to experience your videos!
11:44 wow look at this old smart car, overtaking so smoothly, impressive hehe 😉
Germany's highways are epic 😲
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!
It seems like drivers are so much more knowledgeable with their lane etiquette in Europe rather than the drivers here in America.
mostly because other drivers will hate you and youll get fined if you dont exercise proper lane etiquette (keeping in the left lane for no reason when the right lane is clear)

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.

If you ever gonna be in a accident on autobahn, you will only experience it once

means while in Australia, our highway have a speed limit of 110kp/h and lots of slow driver....
