Your government decides the speed limits. Under normal circumstances one can get a ticket/bill for speeding at serveral speed limits after that max limit you can even be charged to go to court for another review of the situation and the "danger" might or might not have caused. Then you will get a ticket/bill for the max ammount of money plus the damage you could have done.
State Highway Department engineers, determine this, OR in the case of local roads, the counties or even municipalities.
826 limit
the posted speed limit
When another speed limit sign is reached that changes the limit from the previously posted one.
The speed limit is exactly that - the speed limit. While a reasonable excess of speed might be overlooked when overtaking another vehicle, there is no guarantee. You can be pulled over and cited for speeding, still.
The posted speed limit is the max speed.
In the UK the speed limit comes into force as soon as you pass the speed limit sign. As such the distance is zero as you should have slowed down to the posted speed limit before passing the sign.
The humps do not affect the speed limit. The speed limit is determined by other rules and signs.
Whatever the posted speed limit is.
The speed limit is 55mph.
No. The speed limit is exactly that - the LIMIT. A police officer would PROBABLY (this is not guaranteed in any way) let you get by with 5 mph if they observed you passing (provided everything else you did was legal), but there is no exception made to the law in regards to speed limits for passing. You're still bound by the speed limit of that roadway.
There isn't one set, standardized speed for this. The construction site speed limit will vary according to a number of factors, such as number of lanes open, original speed limit on the road, proximity of work crews and equipment to the road, etc.The speed limit is whatever is posted on temporary speed limit signs.Rule of thumb is half the posted speed limit.
The fastest holdens speed limit is 455!!!
