Why are speed limits so low?
Speed limits are based on safety, not entertainment, and many factors contribute to setting a speed limit. Residential areas, business areas and school areas all have reduced speeds because of the likelihood that a pedestrian could be hit or killed, and to allow for congestion. Freeways and interstates have higher limits because access is limited and usually moves in one direction only, making driving safer. Some people believe that governments lower speed limits to raise revenue and do not focus on safety.
The fact that the speed of a vehicle is lower than the prescribed limits shall relieve the driver from the duty to decrease speed when approaching and crossing an intersection.true or false?
False. The fact that the speed of a vehicle is lower than the prescribed limits does not relieve the driver from the duty to decrease speed when approaching and crossing an intersection. It is still the driver's responsibility to adjust their speed and drive safely in accordance with the road conditions and traffic signals at the intersection.

Speed limits and changes in Britains speed limit?
too many crashes . When I was young, there was only the 30mph limit in towns, and a few 40mph limits on urban through ways. Apart from that, no limit on the open road. Now we have 70mph on motorways and dual carriageways, 60mph on all other roads unless lower limit posted. Lower limits are a sometimes confusing mix of 50mph, 40mph, 30mph, 20mph and 10mph
What would a motorist not expect to see in city and suburban driving environment A speed limits of 15 mph B speed limits of 25 mph C speed limits of 35 mph D speed limits above 45 mph?
Drivers need to be consciously aware of changing speed limits and watch for posted signs in city and suburban driving environments. You would expect: A speed limits of 15 mph B speed limits of 25 mph C speed limits of 35 mph You would not expect to see D speed limits above 45 mph City driving is referred to as "start and stop" driving because traffic is either moving or stopped. Changing speed limits can make traffic slow to a crawl, such as in school zones.
