Glossary
An off-road motor vehicle is a motor vehicle that is mainly used for the transport of people or goods off-road. Off-road motor vehicles are divided into off-road vehicles and off-road scooters.
The basic rule is that it is forbidden to drive motorized vehicles off-road, but there are exceptions. The exceptions apply if it takes place in connection with agriculture or forestry and in connection with certain professional practice.
Off-road scooters and light off-road trailers may not be driven on public roads, but only on private roads, but there are exceptions. Anyone who, when travelling with such an off-road motor vehicle, needs to cross a road that is not private may do so via the shortest suitable distance.
The same applies if it is necessary to travel on the road due to the terrain conditions. When driving on the road, the vehicle may be driven at a maximum speed of 20 km/h.
