In Danish road signs and markings, what does an electronic speed limit sign displayed on an overhead variable message gantry (VMS) on a motorway indicate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. A legally binding speed limit that overrides the general statutory motorway limit

  1. Step 1: Variable message speed signs displaying numbers inside a red illuminated ring are legally binding speed limits (variable hastighedstavler); drivers must obey them under threat of speeding fines. Answer: A legally binding speed limit that overrides the general statutory motorway limit. Why not the others: Illuminated red circles indicate mandatory limits rather than advisory guidelines, electronic signs have full legal validity, and they govern all vehicles in the lane.
