Minimum speed versus the duty not to obstruct

There is no legal minimum speed in the Netherlands; what does exist is the general duty not to obstruct the flow of traffic needlessly (RVV art. 5 and 19): driving much slower than the other traffic without reason hinders others. Do not confuse that open standard with a fixed figure you must at least drive.

Minimum speed: an admission requirement, not a driving duty

The Netherlands has no general legal minimum speed. The 50 km/h of the 'autoweg' and the 60 km/h of the motorway are admission requirements — what your vehicle must be able and allowed to do — not a speed you must maintain; driving needlessly slowly and hindering others does breach RVV art. 5 and 19.
