About Maximum speeds per road type: the five-rung ladder: which statement is WRONG?
- The text itself explicitly says 'unless signs indicate a different maximum'.
- The woonerf has its own, lower maximum of 15 km/u; the 30 km-zone a separate maximum of 30 km/u.
- Km/u applies on ORDINARY roads outside the built-up area.
- ✓ The standard maximum speed on the autosnelweg is 100 km/u.
Correct answer: The standard maximum speed on the autosnelweg is 100 km/u.
Explanation
The LEGAL standard speed on motorways is 130 km/u; 100 is the daytime reduction between 06:00 and 19:00. This atom only covers the non-motorway ladder; the day/night nuance lives in the sister atom
Why learners get this wrong
- The text itself explicitly says 'unless signs indicate a different maximum'. The 30 km-zone and the woonerf are exactly such sign-based exceptions within the built-up area
- The woonerf has its own, lower maximum of 15 km/u; the 30 km-zone a separate maximum of 30 km/u. Two different special road sections, two different numbers
- Km/u applies on ORDINARY roads outside the built-up area. An autoweg is a separate road type with its own signage and its own maximum of 100 km/u
