First of all: Germany has no speed limits on the Autobahn (highway) - BUT - you mostly have no chance to race like crazy because there's too much traffic.
If it's wet, slippery, icy or foggy you'd better slow down as recommended - included if you drive on a curvy part, accidents ahead, streetworkers ahead and such things.
No speed limit - yes but we have a recommended speed of 130 kms if nobody else gets hurt.
Speed limit on Landstrassen (on country roads) is 100 kms.
Speed limit inside a city is 50 kms, sometimes 30 kms and sometimes only "walking speed" when driving on so called Spielstrassen = playground area (about 6 kms).

But everything will be announced by traffic signs.

there are SOME stretches of the Autobahn in Germany, where you have no limit.
All other roads do have speed limits similar to ours.

The Autobahn is usually only two lanes, some places three; all drivers use the right lane, except to pass, it's the law.
And to obtain a drivers license is much harder than anywhere in North America. That's why traffic flows nicely and brisk and no fools doing 50 (MPH) in the left lane for hours!

They only have the unlimited speed zones in a few places. Most of the country has speed limits.

The Autobaun has certain straight aways that are no limit areas. There are not 12 lanes in those areas. Most of it now has speed limits. But as far as Germanys normal roads they have speed limits

There is no general speed limit on the highways in Germany but a recommended speed of 130 km/h. You may exceed it on your own risk. If you have an avoidable accident due to speeding you will pay the bill. On lots of highways the speed is limited by signs allowing only 120 km/h, 100 km/h or 80 km/h.

both. usually at dangerous parts of the autobahn (highway) like a turn, a hill, a construction site or an area prone to traffic jams.

oh and also near residential districts to keep down the noise. that's mostly only in the night and evening hours (from 10 pm or so).

If nothing different is explicitely announced by traffic signs it is:

50 km/h limit in cities ( often reduced to 30 km/h in residential zones ).
100 km/h limit outside cities.
130 km/h recommended on Autobahn.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Zeichen_393.svg

Recommended speed limit means that it's ok to drive faster ( yes, it's allowed to do 250 km/h, 300 km/h or even more - if there's no limit announced by signs ) but in case you have an accident at higher speed you will automatically be considered to be partially fault for purposes of insurance and policing even if you didn't do anything wrong.

as far as I know Germany does have a speed limits except for the autobahn, which has a recommended speed as opposed to a set speed limit.

There is a special highway in Germany with no speed limit called the autobahn but most of the country has speed limits.

Yes they have a speed limit. Just right after WWII they didn't. USA military governors didn't want one for the autobahn. Their reason was "if a few aggressive germans kill themselves that's few less we have to worry about."

on the autobahn super highway there is no speed limit. it is like 12 lanes, it is a pretty epic highway.
