What it means
The maximum legal speed allowed on this road is shown. Do NOT exceed this limit. Speeding is a major safety risk.
What to do
- Stay at or below the number shown for your class of vehicle unless a lower limit applies.
- In rain, gravel, traffic, or near schools, drive under the limit if that is what is safe.
In the K53 test
The figure is a ceiling, not a target. Questions often punish “always drive at the limit”.
Where you will see it
On any public road; the limit applies from the sign onward.
