Should you always post the speed limit in poor weather conditions?

No, you should not. Your speed should depend on the weather conditions, and you should only drive a speed that is safe according to current visibility and road conditions.

Even so, just because a sign does not advise you to reduce speed in fog, for example, you should react to the reduced visibility by reducing your speed.

The posted speed limits are for good weather conditions, not bad weather conditions.
