I would drive 140km/h regularly, but that seems to be on the lower end in Germany?
I would say most people go 120-140.
There are some who go only 100. Some go 160 or 180. Very few go even faster.
Funny thing: Teslas are on the lower end. You can hardly see them going above 120, and even less when it’s just a little bit uphill.
Yes, the highways are mostly straight enough, and the white lines are visible etc. Where there are dangerous sections, there are speed limits accordingly.
But you also have to look carefully: if you go much faster than 130 and the road isn’t good enough for whatever “much faster” is, then you are liable for the outcome.

This. If you crash while going 170km/h its really likely that the insurance won’t pay anything if the accident could have been prevented by going 130km/h
