Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
You drive through a residential neighborhood on a two-lane street. You have not seen a speed limit sign since you turned in. What is the maximum legal speed?
Correct answer: 25 mph
Why
Streets in neighborhoods and business areas have many pedestrians, bicyclists, parked cars and driveways, so the default limit is low. A posted sign replaces the default. Watch for children at play and for people who step out from between parked cars.
