DNVTM is a trunk road only from DN59 to DN6-A1 in the absence of any express road or motorway (the future A9) - as Romania has express roads now and motorways usually take the trunk traffic from the national roads (see DN69 Timisoara-Arad, DN7 Arad-Deva, all national roads around Bucharest) - DN69A is not an express way nor a main trunk road at the moment
