Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations (Article 48(1)(a)) set 80 km/h as the general maximum speed for trucks, tractor units, vans and articulated vehicles on conventional roads, regardless of the width of the shoulder or whether it is paved. The limit must not be exceeded even to overtake: the former Article 51, which allowed it to be exceeded by 20 km/h only for passenger cars and motorcycles, has been repealed since 21 March 2022 (Law 18/2021). And 70 km/h is not the general limit for trucks on this type of road.
