the need to in the country like to keep taking on the powers that be the risk. everything turned into our needs. activists, journalists, and politicians living in exile the way to which on the list for their mission, what drives them. people need to know what is happening. there were series guardians of truth watch. now on youtube dw documentary, we speed on highways. we drift off road. we drive in style and we serve on buses. everything on 4 wheels. now on grab the,

is this the sound of the german auto body? maybe if you're just visiting from any locals hurtling down the highway at top speed is normal. germany could cut millions of tons of c o 2 a year with a speed limit. so why doesn't the self proclaimed green power tickets put off the gas in germany, the debate around the speed limit is polarizing a slight majority. once one of the opposition is loud. let's click finish off. if it doesn't make sense to drive 200 kilometers per hour, just to have some fun or feel superior to other people, that's the thing we should keep it as it is. we are restricted everywhere. let me see what i am awesome. but apparently, the gas prices still on high enough to make people drive to the us bogo. why do we build cars with more than 50 horse?

or if we can only drive a 100 kilometers per hour and assign them? the discussion often doesn't revolve around facts. it's a kind of an now so to say, in motion of the phase. gotcha. deo, wrote a book about mobility in germany. costs people one to stock, to be free to have that free will. of dr. really, really fast. germany has more than 13000 kilometers of autobahn, famously well maintained and toll free for commerce. most countries have speed limits to improve road safety are concerned fuel. you can drive as fast as you want and 70 percent of german highways. opponents of a speed limit argue that there are fewer wrote debts per kilometer on the autobahn than in countries like france or italy. but experts like the german road safety council say it would become even safer with a limit. in recent years, the discussion has shifted to the climate. the one thing all studies agree on is

that a speed limit on highways with lower emissions. but how much? according to a study by the german environment agency, the country could cut up to $6700000.00 tons of c o 2 per year, but the speed limit of $120.00 that's about as much as low emission countries like rolanda and eritrea pollute and a year another study commissions by the car friendly f t p party puts the reduction at just $1100000.00. so just how substantial is a cut of one to 6000000 tons of c o 2 for a top polluter like germany. the opponents of a bunch of ways, speed lead me to argue that the emission reductions wouldn't be 3 via transport research or julio, multi old, they just choose the denominator. that would make it appear ridiculous, ridiculously small. but i think if you, if you choose a, the, the, the right, the nominator, the reduction wouldn't be substantial. there's

a gap between how much german transports should be emitting, according to the federal climate protection act, and how much it actually hits. in 2022, the sector went over at c o 2 emissions target by 9000000 tons. a speed limit could reduce that significantly if we take the german environment agencies estimates. even if we go with the ftp estimates, a limit would still have an effect. it's such a low line hanging fluid in terms of no easy way to have other benefits in terms of safety and reducing road death. and he's already exists in, in pretty much any other country and awards. but for some germans, that's a big ask. they see driving fast as an expression of their freedom and cars as part of their culture and some of us john, and see it as a kind of d n a. i think it's that it's sorry to say with, i don't know if that hitler promised a motorized germany in the 1930s, a venture he said would create jobs and dr. technological development,

the nazis network of highways. one of the world's 1st had no speed limits that is until resources started running low during world war 2. and auto von drivers had to stick to a limit of 80 kilometers per hour to conserve gas. after the war, freedom became crucial to many germans. germany was only destroyed whether it was no hope. the weather was paper. wow. yeah, coming back from the front and the car was a kind of freedom side. the dream of owning a car became more and more feasible. as the industry started booming, making cars became the answer to rebuilding the economy and driving them fast became a symbol of the new freedom. so west germany got rid of a nazi speed limit in 1952 and went east germany dissolved during reunification and 1992. its autobahn speed limits. went with it for decades. any

time anyone messed with the right to drive fast, they were met with outreach from some germans. perhaps because with so many cars and great roads driving fast might be one of the easiest ways to find a slice of freedom. it's become a bit of a selling point abroad tourist even come to germany to drive as fast as possible. but if other people also find driving fast. so fund weiss, germany, one of the only countries that still allows it it's not just down to history but also the influence of the powerful german car industry. the line between politicians and the car lobby has long been blurry. so you'll see this kind of what in germany, because i did to effect the step out of politics and they've got to go to the industry up to the lobby organizations. these close ties became apparent when

germany's previous transport minister met with industry representatives 80 times in 4 years for meeting with environmental groups only once. and the new government continues to get privileged access. its last mobility summit was almost exclusively stacked with car industry reps. it's no surprise then that the government has pushed for the interests of the industry, like limiting vehicle emissions caps and expanding highways. the car lobby has an actively campaigned against eliminating the speed limit. but some political parties oppose any change. as does most of the industry we need in general, widget speed limits on or seen on ships as a spokesman for a german car industry interest groups the needs situations adaptive speech

recognition. the automotive industry association visa says science could display a speed limit when bad weather or traffic conditions require it. they say a strict limit would have minimal effects on the climate or road safety. they side us studies saying a limit could cost german society more than a 1000000000 years because of how much time people would lose that. they drilled slower and how much less they would earn as a result. but this paper from the journal for ecological economics says a speed limit could save hundreds of millions a year because benefits like paying less for fuel damages from accidents and the effects of climate change outweigh the costs. a speed limit would cause the recent attempts to implement the speed limit had been blocked in parliament by the car finley f d p party. the instead,

some opponents point to alternatives for cutting emissions. like going electric. many car makers are becoming more open to this ship. seeing that the e u has banned the sale of new gas and diesel cars from 2035. and germany is slowly incentivizing people to go electric. but not everyone can afford to get rid of their gas powered car or wants to the country also needs to improve public transport in rural areas and revamp an outdated rail system. but those solutions take time. environmental researchers say a speed limit would have an effect sooner in my opinion, if the gym and government funds even bring the tubs to do that, then i, i wonder what one it can do to to reduce parts permissions. i think we need to have like that uh statues assembled. it's a bed of dreams as driving fast, an owning account for, for some this would feel like an attack on their culture or freedom,

but it would bring germany in line with most countries in the world. the 4 major thing is if i step out on the, on the smell of one entire of my fluids on the tries to control it and how to cause signs, how to cause slides is an amazing feeling that it's like a symphony of sounds on like movements on my new of of i well n j bash or to of nigeria is rising motor. sports highland, the food, you're based, petro heads call themselves the drift. hunters and competitively over a steering, flashy, 6 up. right? the rang tightly place obstacles is the name of their game. when i said 15, how is it in uh at icloud describe just a normal. okay, i will let the dog zoo uh the engine was

a 4 cylinder boss. the loans do what were into the truck we did, i told the guy that i want to just see what life now just saying is not for you just stick to cut ups and com or difficult. so and, and i was like, bro, i just threw like a mid for this stuff. i don't know how to do it, but i want to do it is now is just an industry i've seen. oh, is, are a said by the police. they don't see people i see if they're just feeling in the cause of i know it's a lot of buffering so they call it needs to game da mentor. yeah. but it's more to support. i want us to take this game. so the next level, i don't want to do, almost resistance. i want us to take it to the professional we. let's take this movement of motor sports somewhere to stop the law pumping. the brakes well in j bash took a different approach. the existing on the public fluids is a new got everywhere and all. so we just strictly avoid drip down the roads. however, we're yukon and we hold the event ends in like rented space is we go to the right

channel, is that the police or would safety v i o. all of those um organizations, atari, to use. we go to as each and every child to make sure that that event is functioned on that event is like fully need go safety wise, location wise, noise wise. we use our social media icons like the it started around 3 to take talk to spread out of use on the invite people to come over for events. it hasn't taken long for a growing subculture, of new recruits to begin taking cars. competitors, i scored on their control of the vehicle. this diagnostic flourishes and how close they can get their car to type replaced obstacles without hitting the button. is it cheap? is actually an expensive sport. when i started, i almost believe they gave him cause when a normal person gets like, let me, let me, let me put it in dollars. when you do want to know more person gets a $100.00. just thinking of buying his b of a phone or getting getting shed. if i should get a 100 dollar 19 dollars,

we need to make a $10.00 for me because i'm always thinking of upgrading the kind of how to make the cop off or beautiful. how to make the cost on all that cost. one of the biggest expenses is higher. row is born here. all of us are all by the way. and because they walk on british on, you've gotten to like 10 tires or 15 fall off that are competition and you have 2 interests in your funds. you're just cleaning the car, doing some borne out, some cruise codes, the find the best it can. i realize i space is a watching you while you i just and gives a, makes you happy to cause you see them smiley and you see them getting excited the live, you see the joy on the edge and i didn't pumping them so of cause it's going to transfer onto our cars, i getting up there. all the skills are definitely opened yet, so i don't have any doubt or anything that we the cities be able to represent names

you actually, sewell, something for you on the internet itself is as the smoke clears, it's time for our well and a batch to get their rigs ready for another ride of my writing in this that goes to name next to the army. there is a pilot part. i've never, never, ever had it stored for one in the, in the this is the story of her beloved 660. if you had 1100 elegant firestone from grandfather, the son ran fun and it's close to 900000 artist. they stay in india, mainland kilometers every very day from my father

even when we were some more than dad used to driver said automatically. i like that really, really me down any of this down any risk? so i said bring you have system is i've been machine play political to be seated as it by the decision of mine and all those people. i think people the same people assume that the wild card is the apple of friends i that doesn't stop them from treating it like a regular will cause they called. so the congress having clock 900000 kilometers and to 1991 up to which they stopped keeping track you down about the shows tonight elect to i mean we maintain as on the top this is a made in march 1974. we didn't get anywhere on the day,

doesn't require any. pretty sure they've been said before. i think i don't know if i decide to go to boy, i did go to the pump it up and i will if i have to go to the new red i the pump split up and will be just phyllis. 9, like you're me to is our pilot. i've never, never, ever had it stored home and they've had some memory to be done using it tonight. when the luggage scared you of came loose on a road trip. when a single 7 fleet street workers including this site and every year, right, they for the year, the course,

i mean from the live site or link to the last 40 my number, they have also been george epps with slightly heavier experiences. like on a downhill stretch between them by and go up to just before i'm really got started, i was like i don't want it. but i said because the independence as was in an intimate thing, we have nobody's on engine ranking one view. so 3 times in my don't shifting wasn't very slow surveilling sort of as we have nobody to be switched or so i was sitting there one hand on the jump. so i was lucky, i later to download

a single one and on the everyone on the go and at least then the latest piet, simplicity proved to be a boon. and i'll probably finish the phone or on the issue with then read those lines or one break. so then we continue with you. i don't thing you can do in 5 minutes. it's very simple. it's, it's really logical in, over perhaps it's bmw o 868. for simplicity that's been key and converting the fall this on your adverb, federal head. after all, it's the kind weeks below and drive. i did this got i think when the key for the last time it's these very god that helps them holding them mechanical skills. i have done a lot of things sitting on this in my for the days and then something absolutely unique idea. so yeah. have done this, i had been working this guy didn't go through. i did write that thing,

no clutch. and that will all done by fabricating things here in would say, uh, workshop seamlessly. and there was a whole complete system i put up. but then look at the law is going to allow any conversion. so it was an experiment after that in some one hour, they'll do it. they have been doing most prominent experiments here. now this is what we've been feared indoors. the ocean week are here. we new air printer for the cars. that's the air conditioners, right? visits in africa. so i got this one from a duty or if i feel that i am not getting the credit, then i just remove this. in the d p, i have a full life site that goes and connects into this. now this is really,

it is what i show it to. nobody realizes that for you. i mean, something like this. well that heavy duty is who's who might be able to deal with. so is the yeah, it's $1100.00 once the most popular called an indian streets. now it's a hot spark machine that's joined with lots of affordable classics so much so that the classic meet an elderly gentleman preferred showing is gen some this piet, over the rolls royce, the place of those guys. first of all, we didn't see many of them. but there was a good cost lucas and southern, you're going see them and then you see one on the i want to show my grandson that these weather cause week since the don't need it out, include 6 other cars. people often find it hard to understand why this is the one

they chose to dave to call me on this day us. we think that why is this coming into it isn't important that the college them in stock really isn't ready to suppose that they can. it is. but the good thing is that a human being should need. it is important to preserve because caddick to the media and that's not stuck in the government doesn't change so that you're going back to the college in black in very early on this thing

and it's important that the economy, it's the exact thing. mechanical standards see this, how it started really impressed with for the 66 year old machine with 900000 kilometers on the road. and it's made of bed tanks from below is a fee or something to me or somebody really enjoy. i mean, really it was, it don't use it. we had me more speed go up a parking ticket for that doesn't mean because the portfolio that's be because you don't drive the user to naples and with the kind the good hands of the 2nd and 3rd generation owners from how those the hopes that perhaps a 4th generation who in the might some did drive this, betty car. somebody said that the nest. okay. there in fee that the generation has

been long. yes. a god as the new. so we quoted that. but if there was a 4th generation, unfortunately, that's that close food and possibly be what i mean. i don't know. but the, the store to have people come up for generation. no, not these p at 1100 still occupies stop spot in terms hot pipe right in the in tenure, but time to surfing is a growing trend. as fully loaded many bus taxi's or my touch is kareen down nairobi as bustling streets
