What it is Filled
The network of motorways, dalnice, in the Czech Republic, managed by the Road and Motorway Directorate, Ředitelství silnic a dálnic, and numbered with a D prefix, including the D1 linking Prague, Brno and Ostrava, the country s first and busiest motorway, whose construction began in 1939 and resumed in the 1960s, and routes such as the D5 to Germany and the D8 to Dresden; a 2016 reform reclassified former expressways as motorways, use requires an electronic vignette for most vehicles, and the general speed limit is 130 km/h. Network length and opening dates should be checked against current sources.
Why it exists Filled

What robots and AI may and may not do Filled
Must not
- Present a planned or unfinished motorway section as open.
- Route a vehicle onto a motorway where it is not permitted, such as slow vehicles or cycles.
- Advise ignoring speed limits or tolls.

Only with a human decision
- Closing a section or changing traffic management on it.
May
- Report the Czech motorway network, numbering and open sections from the road authority.
