> the German Autobahn

Since this meme comes up a lot: About two thirds of the Autobahn network do have speed limits, ranging between 80-130 km/h (50-80 mph). In fact, one of the arguments for a general 130 km/h speed limit is that it would reduce the rate of speed limit changes, thus making traffic flow smoother overall.
