End of speed limit zone for small electric motor vehicles
The sign indicates that the speed limit zone for small electric motor vehicles ends.
When you see the sign
If you are riding a small electric motor vehicle, the special speed limit for the zone ends when you pass the sign. After that, you must follow any new speed-limit signs and the other rules that apply at the location; for car drivers, the sign itself does not change the speed limit.
Rules
- The sign marks the end of a speed-limit zone that applies to small electric motor vehicles.
- The sign takes effect when you pass it.
- After the sign, any newly posted restrictions and the general traffic rules applying at the location remain in force.
- The sign does not cancel a speed limit or prohibition that applies to other vehicles, such as passenger cars.
Tips
- Look for the symbol and design indicating that a zone is ending, not that a new traffic prohibition is beginning.
- If you are driving a car, do not increase your speed just because you pass this sign; check which speed limit applies to your car.
- If you are riding a small electric motor vehicle, look immediately for new signs and adapt your speed to the traffic, visibility and road surface.
Common misconceptions
- Assuming that the sign cancels the speed limit for all vehicles.
- Confusing the sign with forbudt for liten elektrisk motorvogn, which prohibits travelling with such vehicles.
- Assuming that the sign gives the driver the right to increase speed without considering other signs and the conditions at the location.

Theory test tip
In the theory test, the trap may be that the sign resembles an end-of-restriction sign, but you must notice that the regulation applies to small electric motor vehicles. This does not mean that a car driver automatically gets a new or higher speed limit.
Did you know
The sign is aimed at small electric motor vehicles, typically electric scooters that meet the vehicle requirements, and ends an entire speed-limit zone rather than just a short, point-specific restriction.
Frequently asked questions
Does the sign apply to passenger cars?
No, the sign ends a speed-limit zone for small electric motor vehicles. It does not by itself change the speed limit for passenger cars.
Is it prohibited to continue riding an electric scooter after passing the sign?
No. The sign only ends the special speed-limit zone; it is not a traffic prohibition.
What speed applies after passing the sign?
The driver must follow any new signs and the other rules that apply at the location. In all cases, the speed must be adapted to the traffic, visibility, road surface and surroundings.
Does the sign cancel other prohibitions in the area?
No. Other posted prohibitions and mandatory signs remain in force unless they are specifically cancelled.
