I used to have a job with Lufthansa that required frequent trips to Frankfurt. We had access to a carpool that included a number of BMW's and other things that would do 250 kph and I frequently stayed over for a few weeks and got used to driving on the Autobahn.

One time I flew home on a Sunday, woke up tired on Monday morning, got in my M Coupe and went to work. I was surprised to see a motorcycle officer on the shoulder, looked down in a panic and was doing about 140 mph. I pulled over where he was, explained my stupidity and he only asked to see my passport and let me go. That had Federal Pound Me in the Ass Penitentiary written all over it. That's the fastest I've officially gone in the US in my own BMW.
