PassSpeed Limit
Where: Displayed on any public road to indicate the maximum permissible speed for vehicles traveling on that section of the road. The sign may appear on urban streets, rural roads, highways, or near special areas such as schools, hospitals, or construction zones.
Purpose: To inform drivers of the legally permitted speed and to promote safe driving conditions.
- Safer reactions — drivers can react safely to traffic conditions, road layout, and potential hazards.
- Fewer collisions — the risk of accidents and collisions is reduced.
- Vulnerable road users protected — pedestrians and cyclists are protected in areas with high activity.
- Controlled wear and impact — vehicle wear and environmental impact are managed through controlled speeds.
Action Required by Driver: Do not exceed the speed shown on the sign. Adjust your speed according to weather conditions, road surface, visibility, and traffic, even if the limit allows higher speeds. Be aware that the speed restriction applies from the location of the sign until another speed limit sign indicates a change. Maintain a safe following distance and be prepared to reduce speed further if required by traffic conditions.
