My first introduction to the Autobahn was in 2007. The US Army did a good job getting me to Munich, but my ride to Vilseck wasn't waiting for me at the airport as I was told it would be. I had to report very early in the morning to even start the training I was going there for, so I was a bit screwed.
but then I called a taxi.
I was frightened. I was in the back seat of a Mercedes doing about 220 at times. I was thankful to get where I needed to be with enough time to find a place to sleep and barely make it to check in for my training.
Autobahn speeds are scary (to me) when you aren't in control.
