Wow. That must of been horrible for those people experiencing it.

But that scale of accident is very rare I would like to add. I've never seen that before.

Die Autobahn hat keine Geschwindigkeitbegrenzen.

Seine überraschende jedoch einfach wie viele Autos beteiligt waren.

Wollen sie Kartauffien haben?

I cant make that out.

I know Wollen Sie Kartauffien haben? is If You Want [as a literal tranlation].

Must check a translator for that last word kartauffien. I am unfamiliar.

I remember it being
"Would you like some potatoes?"

But the wreckage will take forever to forget. I'd be too scared to drive again.

Bloody hell, I'm surprised so many cars managed to go into each other, never known a crash to be that big before.

Perhaps it's time Germany gets some sort of speed limit on the autobahn.

Actually it is recommended that you go 81mph. :)
