Where did it ever mention anywhere about driving on any autobahn? If it was all autobahn, he could just have politely asked the driver to put the foot down.

Most Autobahns DO have speed limits, btw...
if that's so....what the hell is Germany for then?
Lederhosen? 
but the denfendant has already chosen to self incriminate himself on tv ! is that really so hard to grasp for you ?
hahahahahahahahahahaha.....wow, that made my day right there, thanks!
And my point is that his confession alone is not enough evidence. There has to be something else, and there isn't.
You know why Schumacher is laughing this off? The worst that could really happen to the Taxi driver is losing his license, and a fine. Schumacher would get a few points on his license, and a fine. Schumacher is a multi-bajillionwillionaire, he could buy the Taxi driver a new life if he wanted.
man, I kinda wish I was that taxi driver... but don't we all?
What, he got to spend half an hour getting bossed about by an arrogant german prat, and is now facing losing his licence for what he does for a living? Who wouldnt love to be in that situation...?
lmao. im surprised there was room in the taxi for schumacer, his family and his ego.
he can sell his taxi for at least $63,000 euros through~
at least someone made that offer, genuine or not I'm not sure~ lol
He could probably make more by selling individual parts of the car on ebay. Might take a bit longer ofcourse.
Oh, come on, don't say that, now... let's see one race F1 WITHOUGHT an ego!
That is so American!
lol.
If you knew anything about Michael Schumacher you wouldn't be worried about this now. Read Christopher Hilton's book on him for some fantastic off track stories about the great man that Michael is.
This is even better, I can't wait to hear what the you-know-whos have to say about this:
does his driving license being revoked have any kind of implications on his super license?
And Tiger, im not the type of person who would deliberately buy a MS book, i dont care how much of a nice guy he was usually, whenever i saw him being him he was being a complete dick.

196? Pathetic. He's an F1 driver, they should have either clocked him at 300+kph, or not managed to keep up to book him at all!
Only because this Mercedes was made pre-Stepneygate. :P
Well, he might have been a complete dick when you saw him, but he's not a greedy dick. If the driver loses his taxi-license then Schumacher won't turn a blind eye.
The low blow for Mercedes' to come
It's technically possible, but extremely unlikely unless he does this repeatedly or gets into an accident or somesuch.
From what I understand, the FIA can revoke superlicenses if the holder repeatedly and grossly violates the general standard of conduct expected of highly-paid professsionals (obviously open to interpretation), or publicly humiliates the FIA due to some huge scandal in the press.
Even then though, I doubt it because his fame brings so much publicity and money into F1.
I'm sorry to bring back an old thread, but I've just stumbled across such a fitting picture........
Only if he brings the sport into disrepute.
So if he keeps getting clocked and the press have a field day about how F1 drivers are a menace on the roads, then the FIA might give him a stern warning.
As for Michael Schumachers taxi jaunt, I wouldn't automatically assume he broke the speed limit or did anything illegal. It's perfectly possible to outdrive a taxi without doing anything illegal by using good observation, anticipation, and planning. Ambulance, fire, and police drivers do it all the time.
Skilful road driving is all about making maximum safe progress.
