BDifficulty 2/5

On an urgent service, may the driver of a priority vehicle exceed speed limits when necessary?

Correct answer

Yes, under the special regime’s safety conditions.

Yes, on an urgent service, after making sure no road user is endangered and under the driver’s sole responsibility. Use the special regime judiciously and exercise extreme caution. Officers’ orders and signals remain binding. The permission is not limited to transporting casualties and does not allow speeding on ordinary duties merely because of vehicle type.
