Question 5000

The appropriate speed is always...

  1. below the maximum permitted speed.
  2. above the maximum speed and below the minimum speed.
  3. below the minimum speed.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: below the maximum permitted speed.

An appropriate speed stays within the limits, so it never exceeds the maximum permitted speed. In good weather and light traffic, it may be close to that maximum, while in rain, fog, or heavy traffic, it is well below it. It may fall below the minimum when there is a justified reason, such as dense fog, but it is normally above it.
