Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations (table in Article 48(1)) set 80 km/h as the maximum speed for trucks, tractor units, vans and articulated vehicles on conventional roads (90 km/h for passenger cars and buses). It is a general limit that does not change because the road has one lane in each direction or because of the width of the shoulder. In addition, since 21 March 2022 the limit can no longer be exceeded in order to overtake (the former Article 51 is repealed), so the 90 km/h "to overtake" does not exist. 70 km/h is not the general limit for a truck: it would be that of a truck carrying dangerous goods, subtracting 10 km/h.
