According to the pictures / reports this car was driving on a normal road, not the Autobahn. Outside of cities you're limited to 100km/h (or less ofc - but 100km/h is the maximum you'll get if we ignore rare cases with 4+ lane roads and a solid barrier in the middle → 120km/h). Speeding means that you drive reckless and/or cross the (low-ish) legal limit and/or the limit that common sense dictates. "Very high speeds" over here refer to the Autobahn and I'd be quite hesitant to label anything below 180km/h as "very high speed". Just so that you can chuckle a bit: My company car (A3 SportBack quattro 2.0, 110kw) was returned this week. Due to rather .. special circumstances I'm currently driving a Toyota Prius Plugin Hybrid instead. I reached 190km/h on todays morning commute a couple of times (late, after most commuters - very low traffic). |

That's not quite correct. The speed limit is generally 100 km/h outside of cities, except when there are either two lanes (or more) per direction and a line between the two different directions or if there are less than two lanes per direction, but there is a sold barrier between them. In those cases there is no speed limit, just like on the Autobahn.
