A1Difficulty 3/5

You ride a motorcycle at 90 km/h in a lane opened in the direction opposite to its usual direction to improve traffic flow. Is this correct?

Correct answer

No, because I am travelling faster than the maximum permitted speed

No, because this exceeds the lane’s 80 km/h maximum. Article 41 permits motorcycles and cars and requires dipped headlights both day and night. Its limits are 60 to 80 km/h, or lower where established or signed; speed must also suit conditions. You must not move laterally into the normal-direction lanes, even to overtake. Switching on the headlights does not authorise 90 km/h.
