Bruselas
1. Nieve
La nieve puede hacer que la carretera sea resbaladiza, reducir la visibilidad y aumentar considerablemente la distancia de frenado. El conductor debe reducir la velocidad, aumentar la distancia de seguimiento y acelerar, girar y frenar suavemente para evitar perder el control. Antes de iniciar la marcha debe retirarse la nieve o el hielo de ventanas, espejos y luces, y según el país y las condiciones pueden ser necesarios neumáticos adecuados u otros equipos de invierno.
Do you have to reduce your speed in snow in Belgium?
Yes. Belgian traffic rules require drivers to adapt their speed to the weather conditions, visibility and condition of the road. A posted speed limit is therefore not necessarily a safe speed when the road is covered with snow or ice.
Are winter tyres mandatory in Belgium?
No. Winter tyres are not generally mandatory in Belgium, although they are recommended in cold and snowy conditions because they can provide better grip.
When may snow chains be used in Belgium?
Snow chains may be used only when there is snow or ice on the road. They should not be used on a clear road surface.
Are studded tyres allowed in Belgium?
Studded tyres are generally prohibited. Their use may exceptionally be authorised when weather conditions justify it and under specific conditions.
When must rear fog lights be used during snowfall in Belgium?
Rear fog lights must be used when snowfall reduces visibility to less than approximately 100 metres. They must not be used in other circumstances unless another permitted condition applies.
May front fog lights be used during snowfall in Belgium?
Yes. Front fog lights may be used during snowfall. They may replace the dipped or main-beam headlights or be used together with them under the applicable rules.
