Many love to travel by car in Germany - especially if you have a fast vehicle: there is no speed limit on vast stretches of the country's "Autobahn". Unfortunately with sports cars driving 220 KmH and slow trucks overtaking even slower trucks on the same road bad accidents are a frequent sight... I saw the crash above - and about 6 more that day - on my last trip and decided to take my time driving ... here's to slow travel folks!
