What are the speed limits for a two-lane highway?
1 Answers
On a highway with two lanes in the same direction, the speed limit for the left lane is 100 to 120 kilometers per hour, while the right lane has a speed limit of 60 to 80 kilometers per hour. For urban roads with two lanes, the speed limits are generally between 30 to 40 kilometers per hour for both lanes. Below is relevant information about two-way two-lane roads: Introduction: The yellow dashed centerline on a two-way two-lane road is used to separate opposing traffic flows. It is typically marked along the center of the roadway but is not necessarily aligned with the geometric centerline. Vehicles are allowed to cross or make left turns over this line when safe to do so. Additional Information: Each lane on a two-way two-lane road is typically 3 meters wide. The width of the central median barrier varies depending on local conditions, with a standard concrete median being 1 meter wide (measured as the distance between the white solid lines on either side of the median).
