Hello Christian, what part of Germany are you from?

I am life-long resident here in northeastern Wisconsin, in an area that was heavily settled by immigrant Germans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

North Rhine Westphalia. A small town near Bochum in the Ruhr Area to be more exact.
At least you have the same traffic sign for "Autobahn"...

Kewl.

Unfortunately, the highway guys don't use that neat sign at freeway entrances here in the USA and I wish that they did, along with several others common in Europe (in the same manner that the red octagon STOP sign, RYG traffic signals and the 'yield' sign are all USA innovations that were adopted in Europe). Also, the big signs on freeways here are generally green instead of cobalt blue.

I also have an animated version of that avatar that I added traffic to, maybe someday I'll use it.
