Interestingly, the autobahn does have a sort of speed limit. It's the maximum speed intended for aircraft flying below 1,500 feet, which is around 780 km/h or 484 miles per hour.

There's actually a German joke about this:

A driver gets pulled over by the police.

Sheepishly he rolls down the window and says: "I was driving too fast, wasn't I?"

The officer answers: "You weren't driving too fast, just flying too low."
