Hungary: a change in weekend HGV driving bans
Saturday, August 3, will be an extra working day introduced in compensation for Monday, August 19, which has been declared a rest day because of the national holiday falling on Tuesday, 20 August. For this reason, the schedule of HGV driving bans will be different than is usually the case during the summer.
The driving ban will start at 10:00 PM on Saturday (August 3) and will last until 10:00 PM on Sunday (August 4). It applies to domestic and international transports and to all vehicles with a GVW of over 7.5 tons regardless of their environmental categories.
In summary, the ban will be in force on:
• August 3 (Saturday) from 10:00 PM to midnight
• August 4 (Sunday) from 00:00 to 10:00 PM.
