Why Germans LOVE no speed limits on their highways | Explains | Autobahn Top Speed

It's not unusual to be driving 100 mph on the German Autobahn and be left in the dust by a family saloon doing 150. Germany is the best place in the world to legally drive as fast as you can.
Germany's roads are also relatively safe, but would an Autobahn speed restriction make them even safer - or more dangerous? And why is Germany the only developed country in the world without a general speed limit?

REV reporter and self-confessed speed freak Kai Steinecke heads onto the highway to see for himself with the flashiest car he could find: A Jaguar F Type R with 550 horsepower and a top speed of 186 mph.

P.S.: for comparison, roughly speaking:
80 kmh = 50 mph
100 kmh = 62 mph
130 kmh = 80 mph
160 kmh = 100 mph
200 kmh = 124 mph
240 kmh = 150 mph
300 kmh = 187 mph
