Traffic Laws and Enforcement
Unlike German autobahns, on Austrian autobahns a general speed limit of 130 km/h (81 mph) is set. They may only be used by powered vehicles that are designed to achieve at least 60 km/h (37 mph). While on the motorway voluntary stops, U-turns and backward driving are prohibited.
