Passing target: 20 correct signs and 20 correct rules
Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
The posted maximum is 60 km/h, but heavy rain reduces visibility and traction. How should you choose your speed?
Blue and silver cars travel along a wet two-way road in rain, with reduced visibility.
Correct answer: Stay within the limit and reduce speed further to suit the conditions.
Why
A posted maximum is the highest permitted speed under ideal conditions. You must also drive at a speed that is reasonable and safe for the actual conditions. Heavy rain may require a speed below 60 km/h; the sign is not a target you must maintain.
