distance and speed

when multiple maximum speeds

the lowest applies, always drive at a speed at which you can stop safely within the limit of your vision

Motorway

indicated by sign G1, always have A, 130km/h speed unless otherwise specified, for motor vehicles that can travel at least 60km/h

during the day 100km/h (6-19) at night 100 or 120 or 130

when rush hour lane is open 80 or 100

autoweg or express way

max 100km/h outside built up area, 50km/h in built up area, for vehicles that can drive at least 50km/h

special speed limits

• If there is no lower speed limit, the following special speed limits apply to the following vehicles:° 100 km / h for T100 buses

• 90 km / h for vehicles (cars, delivery vans, motorcycles, three-wheeled motor vehicles and T100 buses) towing a trailer not exceeding 3500 kg

• 80 km / hour for lorries and buses

• 45 km / hour for mopeds and brommobielen (microcars / 4 wheeled mopeds)
  140 km/h for agricultural vehicles with licence plates on roads:

• outside built-up areas

• within built-up areas without cycle traffic, within built-up areas with separate bicycle paths, or roads within built-up areas with a maximum speed limit of 70 km/h

• 25 km / h for snorfietsers (low speed mopeds), agricultural vehicles and limited-speed motor

Moped max speed

45 km/h on the carriageway within and outside built-up areas

• 40 km/h outside built-up areas on the cycle/moped path

• 30 km/hour in built-up areas on the cycle/moped path

disabled persons vehicle

45 km/h on the carriageway in and outside built-up areas

• 40 km/h outside built-up areas on the cycle path « or the cycle/moped path

• 30 km/h in built-up areas on the cycle path or the cycle/moped path

• 6 km/h on the pavement or footpath

road marking

60/80 km roads do not have a line at the centre of the road (60 km if there is a sign with 60)

80 km roads have a double centre line

100 km roads (autowegen) have a double centre line filled with green

following distant or headway

2s, in unfavourable can be too little and on the motorway can be too much

reaction distance

The distance travelled per second is easy to calculate with the formula: divide the speed by 10 and multiply by 3. When

driving at 50km/h, the reaction distance is thus 50/10 = 5 and 5* 3 = 15m

breaking distance

You can calculate the braking distance by dividing the speed by 10, multiplying it by itself and dividing that by 2. If you

drive at 50 km/h, the braking distance is approximately 50/10 = 5, (multiplied by itself) 5 * 5 = 25 and (divide by 2) 25/2 =12.5m
