56mph on a straight flat road
if they're going up a hill it can be less.

aren't the engines restricted though
does that change when going up a hill?

I asked a cross section of my van driving mates if they knew the different speed limits. Only one claimed to, and I don't believe him.

Yeah, the maximum speed they can do is 56mph
but a heavily laden lorry going up a hill will struggle to achieve even that.

There's more than a whiff of the 'waterproof trouser' about this subthread.
