A1Difficulty 3/5

A motorcycle travels on an interurban dual carriageway, with no lower specific limit or conditions requiring a reduction in speed. What is its general maximum speed?

Correct answer

At 120 kilometres per hour.

120 km/h. This is the general motorcycle limit on motorways and dual carriageways outside built-up areas. Observe any lower limit and adapt speed to road conditions, visibility and grip; overtaking does not allow an increase. Conventional roads generally have a 90 km/h limit, although the rules allow a set 100 km/h car and motorcycle limit on certain roads with physically separated directions.
