Highest-posted speed limits around the world. Kilometres per hour are on the left and miles per hour on the right.* A speed limit is the limit of speed allowed by law for road vehicles, usually the maximum speed allowed. Occasionally, there is a minimum speed limit. [1] Advisory speed limits also exist, which are recommended but not mandatory ...
The usual minimum speed limit is 70 km/h. Additionally vehicles must maintain a separation distance of 50 m (164 ft) under normal situations. Even when the speed is less than 20 km/h (12 mph) due to congestion, a separation distance of 20 m (66 ft) must still be maintained. [8] Double solid lines prohibit lane changes.
Speed limits on freeways are posted by signs, generally 100 km/h. Limited segments are posted at 90, 80, or 70 km/h. Most segments of the National Highway No. 3 are now posted at 110 km/h, the highest speed limit in Taiwan. A truck with a gross weight of 20 tonnes or more is limited to 90 km/h.
The speed limit for cars on Taiwan's freeways range from 80 km/h (50 mph) on Freeway No. 5 (north of Toucheng, Yilan) to 110 km/h (68 mph) on Freeway No. 3 (south of Tucheng, New Taipei). The speed limit for trucks are usually 10 km/h lower. In non-traffic jam conditions, a vehicle must travel at least 60 km/h (37 mph).
Road signs in Taiwan are reminiscent of the early 1940s Japanese road signage, which was used in Japan itself until 1950. Overall, Taiwan is lenient towards European road signs in terms of design, but with some influences from road signs used in Japan and China, as well as the MUTCD for guide signs and temporary signs (amber rhombic warning signs).
Had the metric speed limit sign been installed, the signed speed limit on I-19 would have been 88 km/h (55 mph), which is a close soft-conversion of the then-existing 55 mph (89 km/h) national maximum speed limit. As Arizona's current maximum speed limit is 75 mph (121 km/h), the metric equivalent would most likely read 120 km/h (75 mph).
