There is a famous series of fixed speed traps at the "Elzer Berg" section of the A3 Autobahn in Hesse, Central Germany, where speed is limited to 100 km/h.
This is a 6 lane straight descent that really invites to push the accelerator.
Rumour has it that above 200 km/h the cameras were only shooting empty fotos, so the technology had to be raised to capture shots up to 300 km/h.
Well, 300 km/h is not such an unusual speed on a German Autobahn... For that, I love the country!
