Riding our motorcycle on a stretch of road that has a maximum speed limit, by sign, of 80 km/h, can we exceed this speed to overtake?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Current regulations state that no vehicle may exceed the maximum permitted speed on the road to perform an overtaking maneuver. This rule applies to both the generic limits of the road and the specific limits set by traffic signs. Therefore, if a sign limits the speed to 80 km/h, it is strictly forbidden to exceed that figure when overtaking. This measure seeks to reduce accident rates and improve safety on conventional roads.
