Czech billionaire Radim Passer tested his Bugatti Chiron on the highway between the German cities of Berlin and Hanover, reaching speeds of more than 410 kilometres per hour, the Associated Press reports.

Passer posted a video of his ride on YouTube, which he said was made last year on a 10-kilometre stretch of motorway with three lanes, when there was good visibility. Security was a priority, he said.

According to Forbes magazine, Passer, a property developer, is the 33rd richest Czech. He similarly tested his Bugatti Veyron in the past, writes iDnes.cz. In 2015, it reached a speed of 402.5 km/hr, the highest measured speed on a public Czech motorway.

I've driven 170 km/h on German highways before and that was already quite scary. Can't imagine going more than twice as fast. You could literally blink once, miss something crucial and die instantly.

From what I've heard, you get used to the speed very fast. Like, if you just take a break and then get back behind the wheel, the same speed will feel a lot less scary.

I took my old toyota up to about 160km/h once and the whole car was shaking so much i didn't dare anymore (like 14 years ago, never had the need to speed like that again, haha)

everything just starts vibrating, which is alarmingly loud when the second loudest sound in the car is the engine roaring.

The whole point of modern bugattis is they have a very high top speed while feeling extremely stable at said speed. This is because they have a massive displacement engine that never revs that high vs other hypercars, and they're extremely heavy as far as hypercars go. Comparing one to a normal person's car is just silly.

Most I've done is 101 mph. I didnt dare go faster as my truck is pushing 20 years old and not as well maintained as it should be. Just wanted to be able to say I knew what 100 mph felt like. It was a straight interstate in the dead of the night with no other traffic in sight.

I don't care much for speed itself but I love my truck has great acceleration. Idk why but I just like that feeling of coming out so fast you sink back into the seat.

It is, but people are just dumb and stubborn over here.

Also we're full of small towns wherein tickets on the interstate are pretty much the entire operating revenue.

The autobahn not having a speed limit is fucking insane. Like okay you don't want it to limit speeds people normally drive at. Whatever. But is there any reason people should be able to drive 400, or even 300 kph? Just set it at 250 or something.

Germans know what Americans do not.
Slow traffic goes in the outside lanes.

The US even has lane markers for that now - square lane dividers = exit.
