When was that? My only modern knowledge came from an article in newsweek or one of those crappy national mags. a few years back regarding the overcrowdedness of the autobahn and how it is becoming the LA of Europe but they were trying every tech savy way to ease congestioin such as instantly changing speed limits, center lane additions that can go either way and the like. In addition it said that it was one of the most patrolled roadways in the world and speeding and idiotcism was strictly enforced. It was a far cry from the 60s and 70s articles on it.
