Explanation
Drivers must always obey the posted speed limits. If no speed limit is indicated, do not exceed 55 mph. It's often wise to maintain a speed below the posted limit based on weather and traffic conditions. Additionally, some cities may have speed limits lower than 55 mph that are not always posted; for example, in New York City, the speed limit is 25 mph unless otherwise indicated.
