What is a safe speed to drive your car?

Answer 1

A safe speed to drive a car depends on several conditions:

• The safety of a particular vehicle.
• That the driver is currently "safe" (non-impaired).
• The posted legal speed limit for each street, road, or highway you travel.
• Special command signs, such as in construction zones.
• Any dangers on the road, including road construction.
• Current weather conditions (e.g. rain versus dry).
• Current visibility (e.g. blinding rainstorm versus clear daytime)
• Traffic and traffic patterns
• The presence or absence of emergency vehicles which require you to slow down or stop.
