I just remembered one thing: generally, over 3500, the truck speed limits apply to you.
Thats 80kph/50mph max. - I believe everywhere.
But, being a motorhome, you may go a little faster - 100kph or 62mph. That could vary by country...
Whether a pickup with a truck camper is legally a motorhome or not is in the small print, but I am pretty sure the police would take your word that you are actually an RV absent local paperwork.
The actual big rig trucks tend to run at 89 to 93. We just stay with the flow. We are legally an RV, but usually feel no need to hurry.
Ha ha ha!! The first part is very funny. You are good at jokes in all languages it seems. :)
I don't think I should post my USA cruising speed on here, but I will anyway. The truck camper I drive now cruises very comfortably on the highway between 110kph and 130kph. This is my typical cruising speed in the United States and Canada. At least on the highway. When I am on secondary roads of course I need to slow down quite a bit.
Do they mix the very slow trucks and the very fast cars on the autobahn? I have driven there before. But it was in a car and I don’t remember the trucks being that slow. I do remember driving what I considered to be fast and having several very nice Mercedes fly by me at much faster speed. Same on the Italian autostrada.
