That is a dangerous assumption, one that is just as foolish as assuming that all the drivers around them are sober and fully insured.

Other than that, this is probably not the place to debate Autobahn versus Interstate, but I do appreciate your comments.

You really wouldn't like the Autobahn. ;-)

I've changed lanes at 120+, and done so "briskly" in order to get out of the way of faster traffic. There's nothing inherently unsafe about either the speed, nor changing lanes at speed.
