Discriminare? Austria a inventat autostrada cu 2 viteze: Mașinile electrice - 130 km/h, celelalte - 100 km/h • Newsweek România

Austria has implemented a new highway speed limit, allowing electric vehicles to travel at 130 km/h while conventional vehicles are restricted to 100 km/h. This regulation aims to reduce pollution and is part of the 'Immissionsschutzgesetz-Luft' law. The speed limit changes dynamically based on pollution levels, but electric vehicles are exempt from reductions. Public opinion is largely against this measure, citing safety concerns due to differing speeds in heavy traffic. The system also imposes significant fines for conventional vehicles exceeding speed limits, raising issues of fairness and safety on the roads.
