Istanbul is not a capital city. Capital of Turkey is Ankara. Obligatory: Erdogan is a fucking twat

No german city pictured because infinite -10% is still infinite
The suggested speed on the Autobahn is still 130 km/h. If you're going significantly faster and cause an accident, your insurance will probably consider you at fault and only cover what they're (edit: legally) obligated to.
Why would any insurance company pay more than they are obligated to?
I drive in Germany sometimes and the roads are too busy to be going very fast, my average never got much higher than 150 km/h even if you only count the fastest portions. To be fair I haven't tried crossing the country starting on a Sunday at 3 AM, you can probably go as fast as is efficient to not waste time on extra refuelling because of the car's drag.
Much of the Autobahn does have limits though :)
At least they got it correct with the Vatican City being the capital of Italy
Do a lot of Europeans stay 10% under the speed limit? Because that sure as hell ain't the case in America.
I think its to calculate with the likely stops you are going to take during the journey
In my experience, travelling ~90km/h most of the time but adhering to local limits, stop signs, etc. drags you down to the average ~60km/h speed all throughout the route.
As for going 120km/h on the highway, you still effectively get around 80-100km/h average speed.
10% down is extremely optimistic
Now let’s see one by train from those same cities.
London to Dublin, Ireland in 7 hrs??
By the way: This "how far can I get from a specific point within time xy?" is called isochrones.
Very interesting when you move somewhere and want to know what's in range.
Now do public transport (not @ OP, just stating a desire for a railway+bus+foot alternative
you wont believe it : https://sopuli.xyz/post/35479366
that isn't including time; I understand that layovers make it hard, but they are important for comparing cars to public transit
Get in loser we are invading Belarus!
