Whe transporting a 6-year-old passenger on a moped, are you allowed to travel at a speed of 50 km/h?

Description

Art. 20 para. 6 pt. 3 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended).
Explanation

Correct answer: No.

No, in this situation, you are not allowed to travel at a speed of 50 km/h. According to Art. 20 para. 6 pt. 3 of the Road Traffic Act, the maximum permitted speed for a motorcycle or moped carrying a child up to the age of 7 is 40 km/h. Since the passenger is 6 years old, exceeding the speed of 40 km/h is forbidden, even if the general speed limits on the road allow for a higher speed.
