The sign you have encountered is called “Speed limit differentiated by categories of motor vehicles”. This sign obliges to limiting the speed by categories of motor vehicles as follows:

• for motor vehicles intended for the transport of goods, more precisely for those in categories C, CE, C1 and C1E, the travel speed must be limited to 30 km/h;
• for the other motor vehicles the travel speed must be limited to 50 km/h.

In the event that you encounter this sign you will respect the limitation imposed by it, regardless of the category of the road on which you are moving.

Therefore, in the given situation, driving a motor vehicle in category B, you have the obligation to travel at a speed that does not exceed 50 km/h.
