On an inter-urban road without a centre dividing area, what is the speed limit for a commercial vehicle with an all up weight that doesn’t exceed 3.5 tons (if not indicated otherwise by any road sign)?
- 60 k.p.h.
- 90 k.p.h.
- 70 k.p.h.
- Correct answer: 80 k.p.h.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: 80 k.p.h.
On an inter-urban road with no built centre dividing area, a commercial vehicle with an all up weight of up to 3.5 tons may drive at no more than 80 k.p.h., unless a road sign says otherwise. Opposing traffic passes with no physical barrier between the lanes, so head-on collisions are a real risk. A higher limit applies only on roads with a built divider or where a sign allows it.
