Explanation
The maximum speed limit is the highest speed you are allowed to travel on a road under ideal conditions. If conditions are poor, such as during rain, fog, or snow, or if the road is congested, drivers should reduce their speed accordingly. Generally, you should keep pace with the flow of traffic, without exceeding the posted limit. Always adjust your speed based on traffic flow, visibility, and road conditions, ensuring safe travel at all times.
