Practice question

Unless otherwise posted, the maximum speed limit in cities, towns, villages and built up area is:

  1. 50 km/hr
  2. 40 km/hr
  3. 30 km/hr
  4. 60 km/hr

Answer: A — 50 km/hr

The maximum speed limit in cities, towns, villages, and built-up areas is typically lower than on highways or rural roads due to the increased presence of pedestrians and pedestrians. Option B (40 km/hr) may seem reasonable as it is lower than option D (60 km/hr), but it is still higher than the correct answer of 50 km/hr. Similarly, option C (30 km/hr) may seem too slow, but it is still within the typical range of speed limits in built-up areas and should not be ruled out. Option D (60 km/hr) is incorrect as it exceeds the typical maximum speed limit in these areas. Overall, option A (50 km/hr) is the correct and most reasonable answer.
