Is it allowed to immediately reduce the number from 100 to 50?

Usually there is a 70 km/h sign just a little further ahead.

I know of two places where from the 100 country road there is a 50 km/h sign straight away, and then 20 meters further on the speed limit is 30 km/h.

At another location outside of town it is 100, directly 50 because of the motorway entrances and exits, then immediately 50 is lifted and 100.

So many people exceed the speed limit after the 50 km/h sign and zoom past way too fast. They've never even been caught speeding at that spot…

Yes, that’s allowed. You can see such a shield quite early.

I’m not a traffic specialist, but I think that with such questions you can still rely on his common sense and he tells me what you can’t describe.

Apart from the fact that this sounds completely arbitrary, there is also the logical consideration that it does not make any sense to set a lower speed limit if you can only move 20 meters further up to the original limit.

This must be a dangerous place to slow down traffic within the local area at 30km/h, while it can flow uninhibitedly outside the local area, even a few meters further, with a 100 limit.

At this point, I have the impression that you have so much tolerated from a few shortcuts of the traffic rules that you have completely lost sight of the fact that there are also rules and regulations within a place where traffic has to be kept – regardless of what is only a few meters away from the place for regulations.

Of course this is allowed. In general, you can read the shields early and react accordingly. I don’t think it’s like a 50 shield 20 meters behind it.

The fact that a local sign comes after a road and therefore from 100 to 50 is quite normal. If it suddenly goes down to 50 on a road, it should be done with a speed funnel. The recommendation is not to reduce more than 30 km/h. I don’t know the legal regulation right now, but as far as I know it’s just a recommendation in a regulation, but think if someone would put up immediately behind the 50th shield you would have good chances in court. In addition, depending on the federal state, there are also regulations which indicate the distance to a speed sign with a changed speed a flasher may be set up.

Most of the time there is a 70 shield before.

I don’t know this as most, but rather as an exception, which is beautiful when you do so, but I know that on land roads and federal roads you have a difference of the permissible maximum speed directly from 100 km/h outside the town to 50 km/h inside – and even if the place sign is visible by curves and vegetation only relatively shortly before it reaches.

Is this allowed to limit from 100 immediately to 50?

I don’t know enough about that, but you’re obliged to drive as fast as possible that you can stand before any potential danger. A reduction of 100 to 50 km/h is more than acceptable.

At another location outside the town is 100, directly 50 because of the motorway entrances and exits, then immediately 50 and 100.

That’s what I know in my neighborhood and I don’t see a problem.

So many pass the speed limit after the 50’s sign and run too fast. They have never flashed in place ..

Well, it’s a matter of ordering whether the ones put up a (mobile) flasher at the respective places. If there’s a fixed flasher at some point, people will probably stick to the limit.

Of course. This often happens on land roads when it goes in places.

If the visibility of the shield is not below the stopping path (so that you can react), this is permissible.

And I’ve never seen a place sign so unintentional.

You see a place is coming and you can get off the gas.

50km/h. Predictive driving, heard?

That’s not the sign. The maximum in villages. 50km/h applies, is basic knowledge, it does not even need a sign.

And these 70s are the exception. Otherwise, in principle 50 applies.

I know two places where from Landstraße 100 immediately local entrance sign 50, and then 20 meters further Tempo 30 applies.

I’m just going through the neighboring villages in my mind: there’s a lot and there’s a way to be braked down to 50 on the 100th road only by the local sign. There’s a 70 sign in the first place.

Our local entrance signs are all far visible and with over 100m, this is even enough to stop.

Could a mother with a stroller just walk over the street.
