Autobahn (pronounced in IPA, plural Autobahnen) is the German word for a major high-speed road confined to motor vehicles and having full control of access. It is similar to motorway or freeway in English-speaking countries.

On German Autobahnen there is no regular speed limit (besides some areas with high traffic and in construction zones of course). Austrian and Swiss Autobahns have normal speed limits.
