ORIGINAL: Grollub Leaving now for a 600 miles long night drive up north in the country. Puppies, here I come! See you tomorrow, THREAD brothers. Swedish Autobahnen, a German's nightmare! Huge roads, mostly in perfect shape, mostly totally straight and almost no car on them - but you have to drive 120 or 130 km/h... I drove my parent's BMW a few years ago, when we went to my sister's wedding near Linköping. Hundreds of km on the road, feeling neutered... That's like when I drove from Kentucky through WV to the coast. Emtpy roads, but ze German hat to stay at 75/70 mph. That's the only thing I hate about the US in general, I think... It should be recognized as a human right to drive as fast as you want on an empty Autobahn! Dood, let me introduce you to the Belt Parkway. Asphalt feels like 10 armored divisions have been driving over it for a week, wall to wall traffic and at least 50% of the people stuck in traffic with you are certifiably insane.
