Explanation

On this sign the numbers in blue circles are minimum speeds: at 80 km/h you may use any of the lanes, but outside built-up areas you must normally drive in the right-hand lane and use the others when traffic or road conditions make it advisable (Article 31.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)).
