minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•4 months agoMercedes has just increased the speed limit for their level 3 self driving system to 95km/h, which means you can legally read a book or watch a movie while the car drives on the Autobahn.
minus-square@TreczokslinkEnglish1•4 months agoAny car going 95m/h on a German Autobahn is going to cause a lot of problems. It would be a moving accident waiting to happen.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•edit-24 months agoNope. Semi trucks drive 90 km/h, you can just stay behind one in the right lane.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish-1•4 months agoThen they’re speeding. Also no Mercedes driver stays in the right lane. Ever.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•4 months agoThat is interesting, but still, the comment I answered was about Germany.
minus-square@HerrBeterlinkEnglish1•4 months agoSure. I don’t know if I agree with the increase in speed, the fuel consumption goes up with like 1 L/10km
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish-1•4 months agoYes, they are. And cruising in the right lane sucks a lot less if you can do something else while driving.

No, they do 100km/h. That’s the problem.
Then they’re speeding.

On the Autobahn?
Trucks are limited to 80km/h.

I see, that’s probably a good idea.
Yes, they are. And cruising in the right lane sucks a lot less if you can do something else while driving.
