Your meaning is not very clear. I'm not "anti-Autobahn" if that's what you're getting at. It's actually my American sensibility that believes in the freedom to have an outlet like the Autobahn to drive without limit. But that type of freedom is a personal choice with personal risks. Driver beware.

My contention is that conducting a company-sanctioned test that could harm the public at large when there are other safer options, is irresponsible of BMW.
