BDifficulty 2/5

Where will special vehicles with a maximum authorised mass of less than 3,500 kg travel on roads outside built-up areas when there is a hard shoulder?

Correct answer

On the hard shoulder on their right if it is usable.

Vehicles with a maximum authorised mass of less than 3,500 kilograms travelling on a road, when no part of the road is specifically intended for them, will travel on the hard shoulder on their right if it is usable and sufficient; if it is not, they will use the essential part of the carriageway.
