Now you can drive vehicle on motorways in Pakistan at THIS speed
Why this matters: local context for readers following news across Pakistan and the region.
ISLAMABAD – The National Highways and Motorways Police have reinstated the previous speed limits for vehicles on motorway and highways across Pakistan as the fuel-conservation measures have been withdrawn by the government. It is recalled that the federal government had reduced the speed limits on motorways and highways as part of fuel saving campaign following the Middle East conflict that had disrupted energy supplies across the world. Speed Limits for Cars, LTVs In an announcement on social media platform X, the police said that light transport vehicles (LTVs) and motor cars can now travel at speeds of up to 120 kilometres per hour on motorways and 100 kilometres per hour on national highways. HTVs Speed Limit For heavy transport vehicles (HTVs), the speed limit has been reinstated at 110 kilometres per hour on motorways and 90 kilometres per hour on highways. Police clarified that the restored speed limits of 120km/h and 110km/h apply only on road sections where those limits were previously in force. سابقہ حدِ رفتار دوبارہ بحال کر دی گئی ہے۔ تمام ڈرائیور حضرات مقررہ رفتار اور ٹریفک کی قوانین کی پابندی کو یقینی بنائیں۔ pic.twitter.com/Hw81H3uwNO — National Highways & Motorway Police (NHMP) (@NHMPofficial) June 21, 2026 They added that speed limits of 90km/h and 60km/h remain unchanged and must continue to be observed.
