Must buses have a speed limiter?

Correct answer

Yes, as a general rule.

Yes, as a general rule, for M2 and M3 buses covered by the scope and application dates of Royal Decree 1417/2005. The limiter must prevent exceeding 100 km/h; the requirement is not conditional on having more than 17 seats. The regulation provides exceptions, including vehicles unable to exceed that speed by construction and certain specific vehicles or services. A limiter does not authorise exceeding lower road or transport limits.
