Under what circumstances should the vehicle speed not exceed 15?

When a motor vehicle passes through an unattended railway crossing, the speed should not exceed 15. Here is additional information: 1. No U-turns: Motor vehicles are not allowed to make U-turns at locations with no U-turn or no left-turn signs or markings, as well as at railway crossings, pedestrian crossings, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or sections of road prone to danger. 2. Common knowledge: At a crossroads, when the left-turn signal is red and the straight-ahead signal is green, you cannot make a left turn or U-turn. This is because when the straight-ahead signal is green, vehicles from the opposite direction are also going straight, and making a U-turn would obstruct the normal flow of oncoming straight-ahead traffic, which is definitely not allowed as it violates the Road Traffic Safety Law. When the left-turn signal turns green, the straight-ahead signal for the opposite direction usually turns red, making it safer to make a U-turn at that time.
I've been driving for many years and have found that in certain situations, the speed must absolutely not exceed 15 kilometers per hour, otherwise accidents may occur. Especially in school zones during drop-off and pick-up times, with many parents coming and going, driving too fast can easily lead to hitting students, causing fatal dangers. The same goes for residential parking lots—narrow spaces with a mix of pedestrians and vehicles. I once drove too fast and nearly scraped another car. On rainy days with slippery roads, driving even slower is necessary due to longer braking distances; only below 15 km/h can you stop in time. Hospital entrances are also high-risk areas, with patients and their families rushing around—speeding compromises safety. In short, whether as a driver or a parent, I always insist on low-speed driving to protect pedestrians and avoid fines.
According to traffic regulations, the speed limit on many road sections is 15 kilometers per hour or lower. For example, in construction zones where workers are operating and the road is narrow, high speed can lead to serious accidents. There are also regulations in residential areas to avoid noise disturbance and disruption to daily life. When I drive, I adhere to these rules, consciously reducing speed on sharp mountain curves or around schools to ensure safe driving. With many children near parks, low speed can prevent accidents. I recommend everyone develop this habit, as it reflects public morality and responsibility. Always pay attention to road signs while driving.
