You may cross a broken white line to overtake a vehicle but beware: you might be crossing into a lane of oncoming traffic to do so. A yellow line indicates an area where parking is prohibited. Motorways start with M, have blue signs and speed limits of 120 km\/h. National roads start with N, have green signs and speed limits of 100 km\/h. Regional roads start with R, have white signs and speed limits of <em>up to<\/em> 80 km\/h. However, this is not a target and lower speeds may be appropriate on parts of regional roads.
