Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
You are on a Kansas county highway outside an urban district. No different lawful limit has been established, and no hazard requires a lower speed. What maximum applies?
Correct answer: 55 mph.
Why
The statutory ordinary county or township highway maximum is 55 mph. Other highways generally use the 65-mph category, while 75 requires the designated and posted separated-multilane category. Authorities may lawfully alter limits, and conditions can require a lower speed. Road appearance alone does not establish its legal classification.
