I don't know Germany's laws but even reading here, they don't seem to give out last names.  This story originally comes from the Sun, so even if it is not of great international importance, it is a bit interesting. I could not live with myself readily, if I killed someone due to my own irresponsibility.

Fast car culture is not unique to Germany. The Autobahns are designed for higher speeds than US highways, generally.

I have driven there. It might un-nerve many Americans.


This driver could have been unskilled, took dangerous chances, lost control etc.

In 1970 I had a new car able to reach about 110 mph. Usually drove about 100 mph.

One day heading north towards Frankfort airport, a large BMW closed on me fast from the rear, flashing headliights to warn "move ritht," which I of course did.

As he went by me going about 120 mph, there was a 911 Porsche on his rear, flashing headlights warning him to move right, which he did, as the Porsche flew by doing bout 130 mph.

That took about 5 sec. or less.

When in Bavaria, do as the Bavarians do: Schnell Fahren.
