Is it at all allowed to drive slow vehicles like tractors or scooters on a highway?
Here in Sweden, highways are off limits if the vehicle may not legally be driven faster than (i think) 45 kmph.
- maxerickson 11y agoIn the US there are many roads with access limitations and minimum speeds, but many do not have those conditions.
- Piskvorrr 11y agoThat's a bit of a "lost in translation" issue here: what is usually called a "highway" in Europe is usually a "freeway" in the USA. What we'd just call a "road" (pretty much any road) is called a "highway" in the US legal codes.
- Amezarak 11y ago> what is usually called a "highway" in Europe is usually a "freeway" in the USA. I think that usage is mostly West Coast. :) Everywhere else, I've only heard "highway" or "interstate."
- maxerickson 11y agoFreeway is fairly common in many parts of the US: http://www4.uwm.edu/FLL/linguistics/dialect/staticmaps/q_79.html http://www4.uwm.edu/FLL/linguistics/dialect/staticmaps/q_79.... In common usage highway is still sort of reserved for larger connectors, road and street are used for local stuff.
