What is the speed limit on the He-Da Expressway?
2 Answers
The speed limit regulations on the He-Da Expressway are as follows: 1. For roads with 2 lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed in the left lane is 100 kilometers per hour; 2. For roads with 3 or more lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed in the leftmost lane is 110 kilometers per hour, and the minimum speed in the middle lane is 90 kilometers per hour. The maximum speed for small passenger vehicles on the expressway must not exceed 120 kilometers per hour; other motor vehicles must not exceed 100 kilometers per hour; motorcycles must not exceed 80 kilometers per hour. Expressways should clearly mark the speed limits for each lane, with the maximum speed not exceeding 120 kilometers per hour and the minimum speed not less than 60 kilometers per hour.
I've driven the Hegang-Dalian Expressway quite a few times. This route stretches from Hegang in Heilongjiang to Dalian in Liaoning, with the general speed limit around 120 km/h depending on the section. On straight plains sections you can drive up to the 120 km/h limit, but it's safer to slow down to 100 km/h when passing through mountainous areas or tunnels - all clearly marked by road signs. The biggest danger on highways is carelessness. Last time I was driving, I almost sped through a curve and had to brake hard to avoid serious accident risks. I recommend turning on navigation apps in advance as they provide real-time speed limit alerts for safer driving. New drivers should take it slower to adapt, and reduce speed further during winter ice conditions - safety always comes first. Regular checks of tires and brake systems can also prevent accidents. Ultimately, being familiar with road conditions is most important.
