A1Difficulty 1/5

On a conventional road outside a built-up area, without physical separation between directions or specific speed signs, with one lane each way and an unpaved shoulder wider than 1.50 m, what is the generic motorcycle speed limit?

Correct answer

90 kilometres per hour

90 km/h. That shoulder width does not increase the generic limit. On a physically divided conventional road, the road authority may set 100 km/h for motorcycles, but separation does not automatically apply that limit. Obey any lower limit and adapt speed to conditions; there is no extra 20 km/h allowance for overtaking.
