Uhm...actually 160 isn't that fast..I mean...ok it probably is 100 mph...but I've gotten my car up to 220 on the highway here (here in Germany). 140 to 180 is the norm though. The highways are made for high speed and everyone goes that fast. I suspect the German guy had never towed a car before, or wasn't paying attention....OR..the other guy was exagerating.
