Here is my two cents...I am in the Army and lived in Germany for 3 years and I had a German drivers license. It is good for 5 years and the German driving test is the HARDEST test I have ever taken in my life. Over 100 questions and the right of way isn't the same as it is here in the U.S., it is more of myth that people think, they have speed limits on the Autobahn, but you can drive faster at certain points on the autobahn. The cost of fuel/petro is about 5 bucks a gallon or 1.33 per liter last I remember. Since it costs so much to drive fast, they really don't drive as fast as we think. They also have this impressive train system called the Bonhoff and it is cheap to use and goes faster than any car that they can afford. I didn't see any SUV's or Trucks, they are all 4 or 6 cylinder cars over there.
The motorcycle license over there is even harder than the automobile. I wouldn't want to live there forever and the price is through the roof. Get a DUI and you lose your license depending on your BAC.
