Suggestions of a committee used by the government to introduce a top speed of 130 km/h on the German motorway network have recently reached the media. This has led to a debate in the country in which the term “free travel for free citizens” has been used since the 1970s to describe the freedom of the drivers to cross the highway at any speed.

Unrestricted speed limits are strongly supported by the country's automotive industry, known worldwide for building fast and powerful cars. The leaked proposals are part of a report on the future of German mobility due to be published in March. In addition to limiting speeds on motorways, this also includes increasing fuel taxes and abolishing tax breaks for diesel vehicles.

As the following infographic shows, around 30 percent of the highway already has a speed limit. Of the sections in which limit values ​​are set, 4.7 percent are 130 km/h, 7.8 percent are 120 km/h and 5.6 percent are 100 km/h. The debate over extending these limits is not easy, as both ministers and the public are forced to choose between reducing greenhouse gas emissions and protecting the country's automotive industry. A survey by the Bild am Sonntag newspaper showed over the weekend that 52 percent of the German population supported a maximum speed of between 120 and 140 km/h.

Proposals from A Government-Appointed Committee to Impose A 130 KPH Speed ​​Limit On Germany's Autobahn Network Were Recently Leaked to the Media. That has resulted in a debate in the country where the term “Free trip for Free Citizens” (Unrestricted Driving for Free Citizens) Has Be Used Sion the 1970s to Describe Drivers' Freedom to Traverse The Network at Any Speed.

Unrestricted speed limits are strongly endorsed by the country's automobile industry, known worldwide for building fast and powerful cars. The leaked proposals are part of a report on the future of German mobility which is due out in March. Along with the speed limit on highways, it includes increases in fuel taxes and an end to tax breaks on diesel cars.

As the following infographic shows, approximately 30 percent of the autobahn already has a speed limit. Out of the sections where limits are imposed, 4.7 percent is 130 kph, 7.8 percent is 120 kph and 5.6 percent is 100 kph. The debate about extending those limits isn't an easy one with both ministers and the public forced to choose between cutting greenhouse gas emissions and protecting the country's automobile industry. At the weekend, a survey published by the Bild am Sonntag newspaper found that 52 percent of the German public favors a speed limit of between 120 and 140 kph.
