End of maximum speed limit

Regulatory signsSign no. 2.53OSR art. 32

What the sign says

The grey-barred disc removes the limit it repeats. It is not permission to speed up: the general limit for that road type takes over again.

The exam trap

In town 50, outside 80, on an expressway 100, on the motorway 120. The sign names none of them: you have to know which road you are on.

The signs are the official depictions by the Federal Roads Office, from the annexes of the Signalling Ordinance (SR 741.21): official works, unprotected under Art. 5 of the Copyright Act. The explanations, by contrast, are written from federal law — never taken from a third-party catalogue.
