This is one of those deals when you think that this is where the fun stops and stupid begins. If one of those semis even so much as wobbled those two guys would be spread over a mile of highway. I love speed as much as anybody but DAMN thats crazy!!!

The autobahn is infested with so many semis in certain sections these days it's depressing.
One time as I was getting on a highway, I was within inches of being sideswiped by a semi. Inches. The semi was going a crazy 70+ mph and the trailer was sawying side to like crazy. It was windy but not so much to make it sway like that. The speed limit for trucks around here is 55............

Nice find !
I don't know about the 'one false move and hes buzzzrd bait'
Driving at those speeds its not as bad as it seems, just takes a few times to get use to!
The first time i cracked 185mph...i felt like it was the end of the world!
The 2nd time, felt better, and now like the gazzillion time...Let's just say
I can cut in and out of traffic north - or about those speeds without having to think about dying. P.S. Of course i do this in the autobahm

Or the consumate ****y semi driver who thinks they own the road, just noting the fact I'd rather drive w/just about any other cars, than those huge semis, full of blind spots and constantly overworked driving past regulated shifts, fukurs up for 36hrs + w/you pumping by @200mph makes for a roll of the dice
I'd drive that Autobahn in a heartbeat, and see if I could top the 186mph GM gave us
Just minus the slow semis please

good ****
this is how i look at it.
your around/near other cars for a lot less time at very high speed, your vulnerable for less time than you would be at 120

Think about this...200 MPH is = to 3.34 miles per minute....17,635 ft./min....294 ft/sec...holy ****. You don't have much time to make a correction for unpredictable traffic. An open highway makes your odds better.
Even still...consider this...if you were ***** out at 200 MPH and you had a 2 mile stretch to reach that speed and a NHRA A/A Top Fuel Dragster was sitting poised to launch at the instant you passed him at the mark of the last 1/4 mile, he would blow you in the dust before you traveled another 1320 feet !!!! Now that's fast!!

You see him let off after the 2nd semi. When he hit that turbulent air kicked up by the truck....bet it scared the ***** outta him.
Nice vid though.

However I can't dispute your what if comment! Resulting in Buzzard bait!
But just thought I would bring up the differences in how folks drive over there vs over here in the USA. Safer on the expressways I'm told.

They drive much differently over there than I do here. In fact I hear drivers with the slower vehicles,trucks incld.,always give drivers in the left lane courtesy and the right of way over there. It's different here in the US where you can even find someone driving 50-55 in the left lane when the roadway is clearly marked 65mph.
