What is the safe speed limit on highways?
1 Answers
Highway safe speed should not exceed the maximum speed limit, with the maximum speed limit being 120 km/h and the minimum speed limit being 60 km/h. Most highways will indicate the driving speed for each lane, which should be followed as per the signage. When driving on a three-lane highway in the same direction, the leftmost lane has a speed limit of 110-120 km/h, the middle lane 90-110 km/h, and the rightmost lane 60-90 km/h. On a two-lane highway, the leftmost high-speed lane has a speed limit of 100-120 km/h, while the middle lane has a speed limit of 60-100 km/h. Under good weather conditions with clear visibility and smooth roads, vehicle speed can be maintained between 110-120 km/h. If there is traffic ahead, drivers should anticipate and reduce speed in time to ensure safe driving and avoid hazards. In rainy weather, when the road is slippery and visibility is poor, it is generally recommended to keep the speed below 100 km/h. In case of moderate or heavy rain, the speed should be reduced to 60-80 km/h. Additionally, front and rear fog lights or hazard warning lights should be turned on.
