Question 2330

What does the marking painted on the roadway indicate?

  2. That you may not exceed the indicated speed in the lane where it is located.
  3. That you must not exceed that speed until the next intersection.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: That you may not exceed the indicated speed in the lane where it is located.

A speed limit painted inside a marked lane applies only to those traveling in that lane. The number indicates the maximum speed they must not exceed.
