Carbon dioxide emissions from road transport in the Netherlands could be reduced by 30% if motorway speed limits in the Netherlands were set at 80 km/h (50 mph). Lower speed limits would also improve air pollution, noise nuisance, possibly congestion and traffic safety. Click to enlarge. mt for delivery vans.
