What does this rule or driving tip mean? On Dutch motorways, the maximum speed can vary by road section and time of day. Signs alongside and above the road show the applicable limit.
How to apply this safely
Read supplementary signs with time windows carefully.
Follow matrix signs in traffic jams, incidents, and roadworks.
Do not blindly rely on an old speed limit in your navigation system.
Driving lesson and exam tip
Look far ahead at the gantries and repeat the new limit to yourself. This helps you adjust your speed gradually.
Remember: Read the signs and supplementary signs: time and road section determine which speed limit applies.
