Hi everyone, I have a question about Swiss road signs because I found some conflicting information. I always thought that a blue village sign (beginning of a village on a main road) did not automatically mean a 50 km/h limit, unlike in many other European countries. However, I had some doubts. I know that the Swiss system is different, but I was wondering whether this had changed, especially since there were discussions and proposals about changing this rule around 15 years ago. So my question is: Does a blue or even white village sign still not automatically mean that the speed limit is 50 km/h if there is no separate “50 General speed limit” sign afterwards? I’m also wondering about the practical cases where this rule would apply. I understand that there are exceptions according to the law for some minor secondary roads where the 50 km/h limit does not need to be indicated, but I don’t really see a concrete example for this rules. Thanks for your help and explications ! submitted by /u/Few-Raisin8749
