On a dual carraigeway with National Speed limit signs (a white circle with a diagonal black stripe) the limit for cars and commercial vehicles up to 7.5 Tonnes is 70 mph. There are lots of conditions that apply to this statement, so don't expect this answer to cover all possibilities.
Poole is a massive city on the south coast but has no motorway! There are a few short stretches of dual carriageway and loads of speed cameras. The nearest motorway is the M27 in Southampton.
