Hungary eases truck driving ban for Pentecost – night-time transit allowed
At the request of industry organizations, Hungarian authorities have decided to partially suspend the truck driving ban during night hours in order to ensure uninterrupted deliveries and meet increased demand during the long weekend.
The weekend driving restriction for heavy vehicles would normally apply for 48 consecutive hours during the Pentecost weekend. However, the ban will be partially lifted between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM the following day to allow overnight transit.
The truck driving ban will apply during the following hours:
❌ Sunday, June 8 – from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM
❌ Monday, June 9 – from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM
