In general, is it permitted to drive on a motorway at a speed of 50 km/h?
Highways and motorways
Explanation
On **motorways** and **dual carriageways**, the **minimum permitted speed** is **60 kilometers per hour**. This means that you cannot drive at a speed lower than this, except in exceptional situations such as heavy traffic, breakdowns, or road conditions that justify it.
The reason for establishing a minimum speed limit is to ensure that all vehicles travel safely and smoothly. Driving at a very low speed on a motorway can be dangerous, as it may cause accidents due to the speed difference with other vehicles traveling faster. Therefore, it is important to respect this minimum limit to maintain safety on the road.
