What was the speed limit on the He-Da Expressway in 2020?
2 Answers
In 2020, the speed limit on the He-Da Expressway was 100 kilometers per hour. Below are the expressway speed limit regulations: 1. Lane speed limits: The corresponding speeds for the left, middle, and right lanes are generally as follows - the minimum speed for the leftmost lane is 110 kilometers per hour, the minimum speed for the middle lane is 90 kilometers per hour, and the minimum speed for the rightmost lane is 60 kilometers per hour. 2. Violation penalties: Driving a motor vehicle on the expressway at a speed below 60 kilometers per hour will result in a 3-point deduction and a fine. For medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicles and hazardous material transport vehicles, driving below 20% of the minimum speed limit on the expressway will not incur a fine or point deduction.
I remember when driving on the He-Da Expressway back in 2020, the speed limit was generally around 120 km/h, but it varied on specific sections. For instance, on curves or mountainous areas, it might drop to 100 or even 80 km/h—safety first, after all. The He-Da Expressway connects Northeast China, and road conditions can sometimes be complex, especially in the mountainous sections of Jilin, where fog or ice is common. As a veteran driver with over 30 years of experience, I recommend always checking the speed limit signs on the road rather than relying solely on memory. Speed limits are there to protect everyone, and while the 2020 standards might still be similar today, speeds should be adjusted based on changing road conditions. Stay alert to warning signs while driving and avoid the risk of speeding.
