Of course we use the metric system in Germany, so FWIW it's 50km/h inside 
towns, villages..., 100km/h outside towns except motorways, and 130km/h 
as a guidance on the motorways, unless stated otherwise. The latter 
means, if you go faster than 130km/h on the motorway (Should I say 
autobahn? Everybody understands :P) and you crash, you'll get full credit 
for the crash.
Where I live, the eastern part of Germany, the far greater part of AB's 
are limited to 130km/h. Except the big ones connecting East and Eest 
Europe (A2, A4).
