178.6 kph
So slightly above regular Autobahn cruising speed, definitely not super speed.
that speed is not legal anywhere in the world.
Objectively wrong. I drive that fast completely legally regularly in Germany.
It depends on the road.
3-lane Autobahn? No prob.
Single-lane stroad? You should lose your license.
P.S. Most of the Autobahn has a speed limit
And where there isn't, around 160kph is cruising speed for regular cars (not trucks). People in a hurry drive 200kph legally where possible all the time. It's really not uncommon. 178kph on a highway is not super speed.
Oh scheiße, ich muss gleich gähnen.
(And to everyone who doesn't know: The Autobahn is built for high speed cruising and people keep mostly to the right - so there's no high speed "weaving" through traffic. Mostly. Idiots also exist over here, but sometimes traffic is low enough to go fast in a very relaxed way. I've driven in the US and there 180kph would be wild)
So, you have never driven on the Autobahn, you say?
Not die deutsche Autobahn.
You are very smart, and need everyone to know it
