What is the maximum speed limit?
2 Answers
It depends on the type of road, as different roads have different speed limits. For roads without a central dividing line, the speed limit is 30 km/h for urban roads and 40 km/h for highways. On expressways, the maximum speed for small passenger vehicles should not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles should not exceed 100 km/h. Below is some relevant information about vehicle speed: 1. Introduction: Vehicle speed, also known as driving speed, refers to the distance a vehicle travels per unit of time, commonly referred to as speed. The term "ma" used by Chinese drivers is just a colloquial expression and not an official unit of measurement. 2. Speed regulations: Motor vehicles must not exceed the speed limit indicated on road signs. For roads without a central dividing line, the speed limit is 30 km/h for urban roads and 40 km/h for highways. For roads with only one lane in the same direction, the speed limit is 50 km/h for urban roads and 70 km/h for highways. When making a turn, the maximum speed for motor vehicles should not exceed 30 km/h.
A young neighbor who just got his driver's license asked me about this the other day. Everyone knows the 120km/h speed limit on Chinese highways, but you still need to check road signs: urban roads usually range from 30 to 80, and national highways with a 60 speed limit mean you must strictly adhere to it. I've seen tunnels with a 40 limit—exceeding 50% over will get your license revoked immediately. By the way, it's true that going 20% over the limit won't deduct points now, but fines still apply. Just two days ago, I got caught speeding on the highway—a painful lesson!
