We are currently at 4% electric cars in Germany, so no it still make sense to have a sane maximum speed limit. I actively hate driving from Lindau to Munich, because the road is full of (mostly swiss) €€€ sports cars driving like crazy, because it is the only road the can legally drive fast with their cars. Please give us the tempo limit!!

Yes but people correctly understand that once a speed limit is imposed, it will never be revoked, even once Germany is 90% electric. That's the nature of regulation.

Yeah, that would be great to have a speed limit indefinitely (no /s :))

Then why did you lie about it being related to EV penetrance?

It does not make sense to spend time and effort on small issues that are already solving themselves.

EVs run on tires that don't shed particulates or other compounds that contribute to poor air quality?

Yes, they are emission free, didn’t you know that!? That’s what marketing says anyway :)

I’d personally love it if this labelling would be illegal, and it had to say “lower local emissions” instead.

Also Germany stopped burning coal to make electricity. More news from the parallel universe at 5.

Let's move the goalposts when caught...

There's no movement, air resistance and therefore emissions from coal power plants are still proportional to speed squared.

Yes, so the disastrous German's energy policy can be greenwashed by imposing a speed limit in the autobahn... ;)

EVs make up about 2% [1] of vehicles in Germany right now. It will take at least a decade until the claim isn't valid anymore.
