What is the speed limit in urban areas without speed limit signs?

[DelLincoln]

In urban areas without speed limit signs, the speed generally should not exceed 30 km/h or 50 km/h. Below is a detailed explanation of speed limits in urban areas without speed signs: 1. Roads without center lines: According to Article 45 of the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law', the speed for motor vehicles on roads without speed limit signs or markings is clearly defined. On roads without center lines, the speed limit is 30 km/h for urban roads and 40 km/h for highways. 2. Roads with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction: When there is only one lane in the same direction, the speed limit is 50 km/h for urban roads and 70 km/h for highways.

When driving in the city, I've noticed that if there's no speed limit sign, the speed generally shouldn't exceed 50 kilometers per hour. This default rule comes from traffic laws, considering the high density of people and vehicles in urban areas where excessive speed can easily lead to accidents. I remember last year when I exceeded the speed limit on a small road, driving over 60 kilometers per hour, I almost hit a pedestrian who suddenly crossed the street. Fortunately, I managed to brake in time. Since then, I've strictly followed the rules, especially during rush hours when traffic is heavy, and speeding doesn't make sense anyway. I recommend everyone develop the habit of frequently checking the dashboard to ensure the speed stays under 50. Safety is more important than time. If you're caught speeding, the ticket can cost several hundred yuan plus points deducted from your license, which is really not worth it.

As someone who frequently drives in the city, I understand that without speed limit signs, the maximum speed should be 50 km/h. I think this speed is quite reasonable—urban road conditions are complex, with many pedestrians and bicycles, so driving slower allows for quicker reactions. Last week, I discussed this with a friend, who mentioned that 50 km/h is the standard setting due to traffic regulations for public safety. I’ve tried exceeding the limit a few times myself and found that fuel consumption also increases, making it not worth it. Maintaining this speed not only prevents accidents but also makes the journey smoother. The key is listening to the engine sound—steady cruising is much more relaxed.

On urban roads without speed limit signs, the speed limit is 50 kilometers per hour. I remembered this when I was learning to drive—my instructor said this rule applies nationwide to prevent accidents. For example, at intersections with heavy traffic, driving too fast can make braking unstable and increase the risk of collisions. Personally, I think keeping an eye on the speedometer is key—don’t risk speeding. Also, pay attention to weather changes; in rain or fog, slow down to below 40 for higher safety. Following this rule helps avoid speeding tickets.
