What is in this topic

One question, worked through

A real-style question from this topic, with its full explanation. Take your time here; on the day you will have 15 seconds.

You are inside a speed zone of 50. On one street a C43 shows 30. After the next intersection, with no further sign, what limit applies?

  1. The zonal 50 km/h applies again
  2. 30, until a C45 or the end of the zone
  3. 30, until you leave the zone
  4. The default built-up limit, whatever the zone board said

The answer

A — The zonal 50 km/h applies again

Why

Art. 65.5.10: when a C43 inside a speed zone indicates another speed, the zonal speed applies again from the next intersection. (The Flemish and Brussels texts add that the zone board is not repeated; the Walloon text drops that sentence.)

Why not

  • B The inner C43 has the ordinary reach: up to the next intersection. The zone takes over again there.
  • C Only the zone board itself runs to the end of the zone; an inner C43 does not.
  • D The zone board fixed the speed for the whole zone; the built-up default is set aside by it.
