Lol...sounds familiar. Taxi drivers are crazy around here...Germany...land of the Lazy Polizei. Unlike in America...you can speed past the police as long as your not swerving or being stupid(with the exception of going fast...lol). Germany relies on Speed camera's to catch speeders

This is true...HOWEVER,...and this is where they get you, the recommended speed is 130 kmh in the no speed zones, so if they determine that your going faster then that and you wreck or someone veers into you...you still get in trouble...even if the other person caused the accident. So while there are the no speed zones, they still have a recommended limit, not to mention your lucky to have a nice long stretch with unlimited speed. They like to do the BS of Unlimited...down to some slow *** speed then unlimited then slower speed...so on and so forth...kinda annoying.
