With no reason justifying a lower speed, what is the minimum speed for a motor vehicle on a motorway or dual-carriageway motorway?

Correct answer

60 km/h

The general minimum is 60 km/h. It is not calculated by halving each vehicle category’s maximum. A lower speed is permitted when traffic, vehicle or road conditions prevent maintaining it safely, and in other specified exceptions. In an emergency requiring abnormally slow travel, leave the motorway at the first exit.
