Before I checked the actual situation at this exit (afrit 9 Ter Idzard) I assumed the typical German exits with a big four-leaf clover shape. There you actually can drive at full speed on the outer exit lane. It's not advisable. It's abuse. But AFAIK it would be permitted. Some people use this to bypass a traffic jam on the main road, with less traffic on the exit lane. For a length of the exit lane of 1000 m length (@Wolterholten) this would be a difference of up to 8.3 seconds (not account for an acceleration time), for 500 m (Idzard) it would be half of it. How did you compute the 3 s? And even a single second difference, or a fraction of it, would advise to navigate along the bypass lane, as long as there is not a significant penalty on it. So for the Netherlands exit, you just have to edit the details. I think I found the route where I observed one of mw own problems: https://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=fossgis_osrm_car&route=49.18468%2C9.21291%3B49.17757%2C9.23691#map=17/49.18048/9.22960 It assumes a speed limit of 60 km/h on the A6 in Heilbronn (eastern direction) - which is true, the autobahn is under construction. But it does recommend the bypass on the exit lane. This motorway link has no limit at all, or 100 km/h. But actually you can not drive through.
