Correct answer
90 km/h.
The general lorry limit on motorways and dual carriageways outside built-up areas is 90 km/h under Article 48.1.a. Obey lower specific limits and adapt speed to conditions; when carrying dangerous goods, the general limit is reduced by 10 km/h. The current limit for motor vehicles towing trailers on these roads is also 90 km/h, without the former distinction between trailers up to 750 kg and heavier trailers.
