交通ルール
ベルギー
258. 速度超過
速度超過は、交通法または掲示された速度制限を超えて運転することです。速度が高いほど反応時間の余裕が減り、停止距離が伸び、衝突時の被害も大きくなります。また交通、視界、天候、路面へ速度を合わせる必要があるため、法定速度内でも状況に対して速すぎる場合があります。罰則は国によって異なり、超過量や場所などで変わります。
How are speeding fines calculated in Belgium?
For an immediate collection, the first 10 km/h above the speed limit costs €58. Above the first 10 km/h, the amount increases for every additional kilometre per hour.
How much does each additional kilometre per hour cost in Belgium?
In a built-up area, zone 30, school environment, residential area or encounter zone, the fine increases by €12 for every additional km/h above the first 10 km/h. On other roads, it increases by €7 per additional km/h.
When can serious speeding lead to court proceedings in Belgium?
For Belgian residents, an immediate collection is generally no longer possible when the speed limit is exceeded by more than 30 km/h in a built-up area, zone 30, school environment, residential area or encounter zone, or by more than 40 km/h on other roads. The case is normally referred to court.
Can speeding lead to a driving ban in Belgium?
Yes. A court can impose a driving ban of between 8 days and 5 years for serious speeding. For the highest speeding category, a driving ban is mandatory.
Are the rules stricter for novice drivers in Belgium?
Yes. If a driver has held a category B licence for less than two years, a driving ban is mandatory for certain serious speeding offences, and regaining the right to drive can require passing a theory or practical examination again.
Can speeding fines be handled by a municipality in Belgium?
In Flanders, certain limited speeding offences on roads with a 30 or 50 km/h speed limit can be handled through municipal administrative sanctions when the legal conditions are met.
Does the posted speed limit always mean that speed is safe in Belgium?
No. Drivers must still adapt their speed to traffic, visibility, weather and road conditions. A lower speed may therefore be required even when the posted limit is higher.
