Whe transporting a 6-year-old passenger on a moped, are you allowed to travel at a speed of 50 km/h?

In the photo, a woman in a helmet is riding a scooter, that is a moped, and behind her, on the passenger seat, sits a small child in a helmet. When you carry a 6-year-old passenger on a moped, you are not allowed to ride at 50 km/h - answer C. The hours 5.00-23.00 (A) do not matter here, and answer B is wrong.

The Road Traffic Act states that the speed limit for a motorcycle (also with a trailer), a quadricycle and a moped carrying a child up to 7 years of age is 40 km/h - regardless of whether you are riding in town or outside it, and at what time. So a six-year-old passenger is covered by this restriction, and the 50 km/h built-up area limit does not apply to this vehicle. A child on a two-wheeler has no seat belts or car body; in a fall at a higher speed the injuries are serious, and a small passenger cannot always hold on. The child in the photo is riding correctly: in a helmet, in the passenger seat behind the rider - the Act requires the rider of a moped and the passenger to wear protective helmets.

Legal basis: Art. 20 para. 6 point 3 and Art. 40 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
