How fast can you drive in a 60 km/h average speed check zone?
2 Answers
According to regulations, if the driving speed exceeds the speed limit by less than 10%, only a warning will be issued without penalty points. Therefore, the maximum speed in a 60 km/h average speed check zone can be 66 km/h, but it's best to maintain a speed below 60 km/h throughout the entire zone. Not exceeding 10%: When driving through an average speed check zone, keeping your speed within 10% of the limit is relatively safer. For safe driving, it's recommended not to exceed the speed limit as speeding poses significant risks. Driving at the prescribed speed is safer and allows for better handling of unexpected situations, reducing potential losses. Taking a break: Average speed check zones on highways are generally long. If you find yourself speeding during such a zone, you can make a stop at a service area. This is because average speed checks calculate the travel time between two measurement points. If there's a service area along the way, this method can be tried. However, never stop on the emergency lane if there's no service area. This approach isn't recommended - it's safer to drive at the prescribed speed, especially on highways where speeding carries high risks. Always control your speed to prevent traffic accidents.
Oh, the 60 km/h speed limit zone is actually calculated by cameras from point A to point B, ensuring your average speed doesn't exceed 60 km/h. I usually prefer driving steadily, keeping my speed between 55 and 60 the whole way. This way, it's both safe and penalty-free. I remember once on a rainy day when the road was slippery, I maintained an average speed of 55 km/h and passed through smoothly, avoiding any risk of skidding. The key is to monitor your speed throughout the entire stretch—don't think speeding up in the middle is okay, because if the average exceeds the limit, you're in trouble. Also, I recommend installing a navigation app to check your time in real-time and develop good driving habits. Not only does it save lives, but it also saves fuel. After all, safety comes first.
