Limiting speed on Federal German motorways to 100 km and on country roads to 80 km would lead to an annual reduction in NOsub(x) emissions by 70,000 tons, which is 2 per cent of the total amount. On the other hand, CO sub 2 and HC emissions would go up by 138,000 tons a year. The report doubts whether the speed limit can be enforced and will be adhered to (observance). It advises to keep the exhaust behaviour of vehicles under surveillance and adopt regulation 15/04 of the European exhaust gas legislation. (ERA citation 10:028718)
