What is the maximum speed permitted for work vehicles and commercial vehicles with an all up weight that exceeds 12,000 kg?
- Same as any other vehicle on the roadway.
- 50 k.p.h on an urban road, and 90 k.p.h on a road with a built diving area;
- 40 k.p.h on an urban road, 80 k.p.h on a non-urban road, and 90 k.p.h on a road with a built diving area;
- Correct answer: 50 k.p.h on an urban road, and 80 k.p.h on any other type of road;
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: 50 k.p.h on an urban road, and 80 k.p.h on any other type of road;
For work vehicles and commercial vehicles with an all up weight of more than 12,000 kg, the maximum speed is 50 k.p.h on an urban road and 80 k.p.h on any other type of road. On an urban road this is the same as for an ordinary vehicle, but outside the city the speed is more limited. The reason is the vehicle's great weight, which lengthens the braking distance and increases the force of impact in an accident.
