On the highways in mainland China, there are speed limits for motor vehicles. The general maximum speed is 120 km/h, and the minimum speed is 80 km/h. For special road sections and tunnels, the speed limit indicated on roadside signs should be followed. For novice drivers, maintaining a speed of 90-100 km/h is recommended for safety. Below are some precautions for driving on highways: 1. Safety check: Before getting on the highway, check for any potential safety hazards. It's essential to inspect your vehicle for any issues before driving on the highway. 2. Wear seat belts: Always wear seat belts in the front and rear seats, and avoid placing unsecured items in the vehicle. 3. Stay in one lane: Avoid frequent lane changes on the highway, switching between the overtaking lane and the regular lane. Do not make sudden decelerations or stops without warning. While driving, avoid driving side by side with other vehicles, staying in the overtaking lane for extended periods, or attempting to overtake from the emergency lane. Additionally, prepare for lane changes in advance when exiting the highway to avoid missing the exit.
