Nearly nobody in Germany floors it all the time, because that's 250 km/h in a typical German car which is very tiring and inefficient. Much more typical that more than half drive 130 or less, a big group does 140 - 180ish depending on conditions and a tiny tiny group floors it all the time.
- pintxo 5y agoActual average speed on the Autobahn is 125 km/h [1]. [1] https://www.deutschland.de/en/topic/life/germany-and-the-autobahn-speed-limits-and-reality https://www.deutschland.de/en/topic/life/germany-and-the-aut...
- dathinab 5y agoYes cars which can safely go 250 km/h are also not typical for the whole of Germany but more like the more wealth 30-40% or so. Either way there are some areas in where you have no speed limit and a over-proportional amount of people which can afford such cars and also frequently use their cars (for non very short) commute and as such are more likely to buy such car (most times for enjoyable rides and status less often for going fast). So in this areas they might be typical.
- dathinab 5y ago> and a tiny tiny group floors it all the time I would like a max limit of ~160 km/h which would make driving the highways where such people appear over proportional often much more pleasant, also complement this with a awareness campaign about "Richtgeschwindigkeit" (~recommended max speed), accidents and insurance ;=)
