Has the Highway Speed Limit of 80 Been Cancelled?
1 Answers
No, it has not been cancelled. On highways with an 80 km/h speed limit, you can exceed the limit by up to 8 km/h, meaning you won't be penalized for speeds below 88 km/h. Here is more information about speeding: Penalties: If you drive at 85 km/h in an 80 km/h zone, it is considered speeding, but since it does not exceed 10% of the speed limit, you won't be fined or receive penalty points. However, you may receive a warning. If you exceed the speed limit by 10% to 20%, you will be fined and receive 3 penalty points. If you exceed the speed limit by 20% to 50%, you will be fined and receive 6 penalty points. Legal Basis: Article 86 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China."
