Autobahn vs Interstate

When we think of Germany, a lot of people think of the beer and the Autobahn. It is famous for not having any speed limit. The thing that we often fail to see, however, is the Autobahn is smooth as silk. The road is for the most part straight as well.

The roads in Germany are so much better maintained then here in the U.S. Granted, the United States has a lot more roadways to maintain due to the shire size of the United States vs Germany.
Driving on the Autobahn

A misunderstanding I want to point out: the Autobahn is not all no speed-limit. Near towns and cities, there is restrictions on how fast you can go.

Despite the high speeds on the Autobahn, there is less wrecks then on the Interstates in America.
