Prohibition on crossing motorways for Class C3, C4, and heavy legacy drones

In plain language

If you fly a Class C3, C4, or a legacy drone weighing 250g or more, you must not cross or hover over motorways or expressways, and you must respect the 1:1 rule.

Requirement as structured

Transportstyrelsen's guidance (based on EASA guidance) states, as a recommendation for flying over a motorway or expressway, that drones in class C3 or C4, and drones without a C class placed on the market before 1 January 2024 weighing 250 g or more, are not permitted to cross or hover over the road, and the 1:1 rule applies.
