    In the Netherlands there are two kinds of mopeds.

    • Blue plates, which are (should be) capped at 25 km/h.
      They generally go where cyclists go (with the exception of Amsterdam where they have to go on the road) and are effectively treated as motorized bicycles.
    • Yellow plates, which are (should be) capped at 45 km/h.
      They are supposed to go on the road, unless signs indicate otherwise. If they are on a shared bike/moped path (which is mostly found in rural areas) then the speed limit is 30 km/h in cities and 40 km/h outside cities.
