Autobahn is out of the city experience. Stroads on OP picture are basically half of every American city.

Autobahn are also leading into many cities, often ending behind the border of the city with its own city entry sign.

Anyhow if you mean Landstraße vs Autobahn, fair. I just wanted to add that on major routes though in a different way it can be similar in other countries.

And yes I know those big ass wide streets and their design is horrible.

Yeah, specifically designed roads for transportation inevitably will look the same, they're purpose driven and constructed by a very specific code.
But that shit in the photo is their cities or what they call cities anyway, that's what is bizzare.
