When riding on an interurban road that has a passable and sufficient shoulder, is a moped permitted to ride side by side with another one?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations prohibit moped riders, and riders of the other vehicles required to use the shoulder, from riding in a parallel position (Article 36(2)). Since 1 October 2026 (Royal Decree 518/2026), riding two abreast is permitted only for bicycles. Therefore, even if there is a passable and sufficient shoulder, two mopeds must ride in single file, one behind the other: they must not ride side by side either on the shoulder or on the roadway.
