A driver can lose his driver’s license if he is recorded by the radar as driving in the city, in certain areas, at a speed of 65 km/h, and the speed limit can be applied in all localities in Romania.
Road legislation sets very clear speed limits. They vary depending on the type of road and the residential area it passes through.
These limits are imposed to prevent road accidents and to protect the lives of pedestrians and drivers.
What is the speed limit in Romania?
In Romania, speed limits are set according to the type of road. But, there are certain areas in cities or towns, where these limits differ.
In general, the maximum permitted speed is:
50 km/h in the locality 90 km/h on the roads outside the localities 100 km/h on the national roads (DN) 120 km/h on the express roads 130 km/h on the highway.
The maximum speed allowed on any of these sections may differ as determined by the road administrator.
For example, on National Road 1, in the town of Bărcănești, the maximum speed is limited to 70 km/h.
Penalties for speeding
Exceeding the speed limit is punishable by a fine and, in certain cases, suspension of the driver’s license. The fine point is 145 lei, and for speeding, penalties between 2 and 29 fine points are applied.
Penalties applied depending on the speed with which you exceeded the limit:
10 – 20 km/h: 2-3 fine points (290 lei – 435 lei) + 2 penalty points 21 – 30 km/h: 4-5 fine points (580 lei – 725 lei) + 3 points penalty 31 – 40 km/h: 6-8 fine points (870 lei – 1,160 lei) + 4 penalty points 41 – 50 km/h: 9-20 fine points (1,305 lei – 2,900 lei) + 6 penalty points over 50 km/h: 9 – 20 fine points (1,305 lei – 2,900 lei) + driving license suspension for 90 days. over 70 km/h: 9 – 20 fine points (1,305 lei – 2,900 lei) + driving license suspension for 120 days.
License suspended for the speed of 65 km/h
Drivers must pay close attention to speed limit signs, especially in the city.
Because, often, local authorities can even impose a 10 km/h limit in the area of schools or hospitals.
So, a driver who is recorded by the radar as driving at a speed of 65 km/h in such an area risks both a fine and the suspension of his license. Because it exceeds the speed limit by more than 50 km/h.
