What does exceeding the speed limit by 50% mean?
1 Answers
For example, if the speed limit on a road section is 100 kilometers per hour, driving at a speed exceeding 150 kilometers per hour means exceeding the speed limit by 50%. According to traffic regulations, different speed limits are set for various types of vehicles on different roads. Exceeding the speed limit by 50% of the regulated speed on the road being traveled is considered a violation. Below are precautions for driving on highways: 1. Check the vehicle before entering the highway: Inspect the braking system and tire pressure/wear before driving on the highway to avoid inadequate emergency braking. Both underinflated and overinflated tires are unsuitable for high-speed driving and can easily lead to blowouts, which can be fatal at high speeds. Therefore, thorough vehicle inspection is crucial. 2. Wear seat belts: Whether driving on regular roads or highways, seat belts should be worn. Passengers in the rear seats should also wear seat belts during high-speed driving.
