On highways, the minimum speed must not be less than 60 km/h. Driving below the prescribed minimum speed on the highway will result in a deduction of 3 points and a warning or fine. According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Article 78: Highways shall indicate the speed limits for each lane. The maximum speed shall not exceed 120 km/h, and the minimum speed shall not be less than 60 km/h. Maximum speed: On highways, the maximum speed for small passenger vehicles shall not exceed 120 km/h, for other motor vehicles shall not exceed 100 km/h, and for motorcycles shall not exceed 80 km/h. If there are two lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the left lane shall be 100 km/h; if there are three or more lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the leftmost lane shall be 110 km/h, and for the middle lane shall be 90 km/h. If the speed limit indicated by road signs differs from the above lane speed regulations, drivers shall follow the speed limit indicated by the road signs.
