AMDifficulty 1/5

May a moped exceed the applicable maximum speed?

Correct answer

No.

No. Obey the applicable limit; a moped cannot exceed its permitted maximum or add 20 km/h to overtake. Its maximum design speed is no more than 45 km/h, and lower road limits must be observed where applicable. Not every moped has a petrol engine up to 50 cm³: other powertrains have their own definitions and limits.
