Looks like the Atlanta rush hour on any given weekday.

I bet it was started by some *** who pulled into the fast lane with his mobilehome!

And I'm going to cross Germany south-north on Thursday...

It always feels like going through a minefield when you hit the Autobahn during the holiday season.

Hi Jens,
I can second that. Not much room to stretch it's legs. Let me know if you come by the Nuremberg area.
I set up camp there, app. 1 year ago. Nice area with the Frankonian Swiss mountains close by with lot's of windy roads.
