Is Driving at 60 MPH Considered Slow?
1 Answers
This is relative. On a highway with a speed limit of 120, driving at 60 MPH is considered quite slow. However, it is a normal speed for regular driving. Below is a detailed introduction about vehicle speed: 1. Overview: Vehicle speed refers to the distance a vehicle travels per unit of time, commonly measured in kilometers per hour or meters per second. Vehicle speed is one of the three key parameters in traffic flow theory and holds significant importance in traffic flow studies. It can also broadly refer to the speed of motor vehicles. 2. Expansion: To suit different purposes, vehicle speed is mainly categorized into spot speed, segment speed, and design speed. The maximum speed refers to the highest speed a vehicle can achieve on a well-paved, level road under windless conditions, where driving resistance and driving force are balanced. It is one of the three evaluation indicators of a vehicle's dynamic performance.
