Only certain parts of the Autobahn are unlimited, most are restricted.
Carbon emissions do have a negative effect, but rather than try to push more and more out of a fossil fuel, lets go down different fuel routes.
As for cars, able to safely do over 100MPH, I totally agree, whether the majority of drivers can cope with those speeds is another thing. Personaly, I would rather see cars GPS restricted so that in built up areas, they are electronically limited to 20/30/40/50 etc....
Also, I would like to see a power limit for new users, just like you do in motorbikes, mainly to stop the tossers (male and female) ripping round estates in their dodgy Corsa's etc, not tax, insurance or MOT, let them have small cars, limited power and cheap insurance so they have no excuse over it.
