There are no speed limits on sidewalks, but whatever it is that you're doing, you may not endanger any other pedestrians
Can any human keep up with a car speed limit?

Why is a safe speed so important?
It is important to use a safe speed on all roadways. The speed limit is listed to ensure the drivers awareness or surrounding and pedestrians. To use excessive speed limits reaction times and can cause greater damage in event of an accident.
Why are there set speed limits?
To keep a level of safety on the road with drivers, pedestrians, bicicylists and other motorists, etc. If you drive too fast or too slow the risk of an accident increases... Obvi.
Explain why there are speed limits on roads.?
Speed limits are established to enhance road safety by reducing the likelihood of accidents and minimizing their severity. They take into account various factors such as road conditions, traffic density, and the presence of pedestrians. By enforcing speed limits, authorities aim to create a predictable driving environment, allowing drivers to react appropriately to changing circumstances. Ultimately, these regulations help protect both drivers and vulnerable road users.
What are the safety measures that can be implemented to reduce the risk of accidents involving cars and pedestrians?
Safety measures to reduce the risk of accidents involving cars and pedestrians include installing traffic signals and crosswalks, enforcing speed limits, improving visibility with proper lighting and signage, educating the public on road safety, and implementing infrastructure changes such as speed bumps and pedestrian islands.
How fast are trains allowed to travel inside city limits?
Train speed limits inside city limits vary depending on the specific city and the type of train. Typically, passenger trains are allowed to travel at speeds up to 79 mph in urban areas, while freight trains are limited to speeds around 40-50 mph. These speed limits are set to ensure safety for both passengers and pedestrians in densely populated areas.
When approaching or nearing an uncontrolled intersection you should?
Observe speed limits, slow down and be prepared to stop, if necessary. Give right of way to pedestrians and to traffic approaching from the right (unless signage indicates otherwise).
Which expressway does not have speed limits?
Parts of the German Autobahn do not have posted speed limits.
The best ways to determine the safest driving speed are to?
1) know the speed limit 2) Assess the conditions
Why does it matter if there is a speed limit or not?
Aside from the issue of pure legality, which means that you can have legal penalties imposed for violating a speed limit, there are valid reasons for such limits. The faster you are driving, the less time you have to react to anything that is happening in terms of what other cars or pedestrians may be doing. And if you do have a collision, it will be more damaging at higher speeds. So speed limits are designed to be appropriate for the driving conditions of a particular road. And in view of the tremendous number of people who are killed or injured every day in traffic accidents, speed limits (and other rules of the road) are worth taking seriously.
What is the speed limit on a dirt road?
If it is a single carriageway, then the speed limit will be 60mph, unless it states otherwise or there are legal enforcements in place (e.g. roadworks/speed restrictions.)
