autobahn

I live in West Germany and an Autobahn is not far away.

At the same time, it's good to have an experienced teacher with you when you first hit the autobahn.

So 0-60 is a lot more interesting than -95, unless you're driving on the autobahn.

The German Autobahn (equivalent to Interstate highways here) is entirely limited-access, high-speed (minimum speed limit 100 km/h; often no speed limit).

The Autobahn never passes through towns or villages, only Bundesstraße and smaller road types do.

As someone else pointed out, the Autobahn doesn't ever go through towns or villages.

Without that a road with as diverse speeds as the Autobahn would be impossible.

But because of the famously high speed limits on the Autobahn I didn't expect to see number like this.

Well, I do think that the risk of pedestrians on the autobahn isn't something we optimize for.

Are they going to chase you down the autobahn, waving frantically at you?!

There is also Autobahn which can provide you RPC and PubSub over WebSocket.

To answer your first question, there are a number of attractive advantages to using Meteor over say socket.io or autobahn on top of Node.

Eisenhower gained an appreciation of the Reichsautobahn system, the first "national" implementation of modern Germany's Autobahn network, as a necessary component of a national defense system while he was serving as Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe during World War II.

Still, you can't ride a bike on an Autobahn, and neither can you drive a tractor.

I'm suddenly picturing epic car chases involving Audis being pursued by DHL trucks on the Autobahn.

That logic doesn't seem to apply when a cop pulls you over (while still intact) when caught driving 200km/h on a highway which is not the Autobahn.
