Is a moped allowed to ride on a road marked as a motorway?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Article 38(1) of the General Traffic Regulations prohibits mopeds from riding on motorways and dual carriageways. Their maximum speed by construction is 45 km/h, far below the minimum of 60 km/h required on these roads, which would pose a serious risk of a rear-end collision. The prohibition is absolute and does not depend on the time of day, so riding only in daylight does not lift it. Use of the shoulder is not permitted either: on motorways access is completely barred, although on conventional roads mopeds must indeed use the shoulder if it is passable and sufficient.
