The Traveller's Guide to the German Autobahn

Let me welcome you to Germany, English-speaking travellers. I know the two reasons you come here for, because I often meet you at the usual places going fast: There is a) the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring which to you is the only thing interesting about the Ring, and there is b) the Autobahn. Let's just leave a) because you already are much more obsessed with the Nürburgring than we are (or is entirely healthy) and proceed straight to the limitless speed potential of b) our motorway network. There is much fun to be had here, but you can also return home frustrated and with enough speeding tickets to keep you warm in winter. So you may want to listen to the following pro tips from a frequent flyer.
