From the key facts
- Heavy motor vehicles, drawbar combinations and articulated vehicles: maximum 80 km/h, even where a higher speed is signed; buses on motorways/expressways 100 km/h (not articulated buses or service buses with standing places) – VRV Art. 5
- Outside built-up areas: heavy motor vehicles keep to the far right, keep at least 100 m between each other, and stop in lay-bys if necessary; sign 2.47 = minimum distance between heavy motor vehicles – VRV Art. 10 para. 3, SSV Art. 28
All key facts, the questions with explanations and the exam simulation are part of the course.
