Question 1344 in the bank

The maximum speed limit on a freeway is 110 Kph What vehicles are forbidden to drive this speed?

  1. Correct answer: A commercial vehicle with an all up weight that exceeds 12,000 kg, a work vehicle, a touring vehicle and a "slow moving" vehicle.
  2. A vehicle with an all up weight that exceeds 8,000 kg.
  3. A commercial vehicle with an all up weight that exceeds 10,000 kg.
  4. Every vehicle with an all up weight that exceeds 12,000 kg.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: A commercial vehicle with an all up weight that exceeds 12,000 kg, a work vehicle, a touring vehicle and a "slow moving" vehicle.

The 110 km/h limit on a freeway does not apply to every vehicle. Commercial vehicles with an all up weight over 12,000 kg, work vehicles, touring vehicles and slow moving vehicles have lower maximum speeds, because they are heavy, slow or harder to brake and control. The restriction is not set by weight alone for all vehicle types, so the options mentioning only a weight limit are incomplete.
