Speed limits in Poland vary depending on the type of road and the type and weight of the vehicle:[1]
| Built-up areas | Residential areas | Motorways | Expressways (dual carriageway) | Expressways (single carriageway) Other roads (dual carriageway) |
Other roads | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cars and motorcycles | 50 | 20 | 140[2] | 120 | 100 | 90 |
| Heavy goods vehicles (> 3.5 t) | 80[2] | 80 | 80 | 70 | ||
| Buses | 80 (100 with a special permit). | 80 | 80 | 70 | ||
| Cars and vans with trailers | 80 | 80 | 80 | 70 |
The limits shown above apply unless otherwise stated, as road signs may prescribe a lower or a higher speed limit (e.g. limits of 70 km/h or (occasionally) higher can be found on urban dual carriageways).
A higher night speed limit (60 km/h) used to apply in urban areas from 23:00 to 5:00 until 1 June 2021.[3]
