The Netherlands has much more kilometres of motorways ("snelwegen"), than expressways ("autowegen"). The latter only form a complementary part of the country's main highway network. They are typically shorter than motorways, offering connections of a more regional significance. The general speed limit is 100 km/h. Only faster motor vehicles, both "capable" and "legally allowed" to go at least 50 km/h, may use the road. "Autowegen" are always numbered and mostly signposted with an N (for Non motorway highway) and up to three digits, like . For the most part they fall under national or provincial management.
