Which of the speed limit signs does not apply to the driver of a moped?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
C. C.
Explanation
In the picture there are three signs: A - B-43 "speed limit zone" 30 km/h, B - B-33 "speed limit" 40 km/h with a plate showing a 500 m section, C - B-33 50 km/h with a plate with a motorcycle symbol. Sign C does not apply to a moped rider - answer C.
A plate under sign B-33 with a vehicle symbol shows that the speed limit applies only to the driver of the vehicle shown on the plate. Sign C has a motorcycle symbol, and a moped is not a motorcycle - it is a separate category of vehicle. So sign C does not apply to a moped rider. Signs A and B have no plates that narrow them down, so they apply to all drivers, including moped riders: in the zone marked with B-43 you ride no faster than 30 km/h, and on the 500 m section beyond sign B - no faster than 40 km/h.
