Correct answer
Between 60 and 80 km/h.
When a vehicle travels in a lane authorised for traffic in the opposite direction to normal, and there are no specific signs, it must travel at between 60 and 80 km/h. These lanes are authorised to maintain traffic flow during roadworks and are properly indicated with channelising devices and, in some cases, square or lane traffic lights. The rules for using these lanes state that a maximum speed of 80 km/h and a minimum speed of 60 km/h must be observed. In addition, dipped-beam headlights must be switched on both day and night to improve visibility and safety.
