    A road’s speed limit is the lower one of these two values though:

    • the speed limit on signs
    • the highest speed it is safe to drive at

    If you can’t stop within the same distance as you can look ahead, YOU ARE TOO FAST.

    If you crash into a stopped car hidden behind a curve or hill, you went too fast. Traffic jams can occur for any reason at any road.

    If you run over a child that ran across the road from behind a parked car in a dense urban environment, you went too fast. It is to be expected that children live in urban areas and that children are irrational.
