BDifficulty 2/5

When overtaking on an autopista or an urban road, may a private car driver exceed the applicable speed limit?

Correct answer

No.

No. The applicable limit also applies when overtaking. There is no 20 km/h allowance for that manoeuvre. Urban limits are not always 50 km/h; they depend on road type and signs. If the overtake cannot be completed safely within the limit, desist.
